Everything seems a little bit bigger when the Nashville Predators and Winnipeg Jets get together these days and they'll do so again tonight (at 7 p.m. CT).
The Predators (28-16-4) won big in their first contest of a three-game homestand, topping the Washington Capitals, 7-2. Defenseman Yannick Weber made his return to the lineup for the win after missing the previous 10 games with a lower-body injury.
Winnipeg (30-14-2) and Nashville also faced off in the Predators' first home win of the season, a 3-0 victory on Oct. 11. The Jets will host the Preds on March 1 and March 23 to complete the clubs' four-game season series.
The Preds held a full morning skate on Thursday. Below is a projected lineup based on the session:
