Game Night in C-Bus

The Predators are in Columbus for a tilt against the red hot Columbus Blue Jackets. After their successful trip to Carolina (and our 20 hours on the bus to go see ‘em!) Nashville tries to stay on the good side of the ledger and continue their modest two game win streak. This game finishes one of the most travel-filled portions of their schedule, being on the road for nine of their last ten games. The Preds are home for the holidays after tonight with a short trip up to Minnesota interfering with Thanksgiving dinner.

The Blue jackets are on a roll of their own, winners of three straight and four of their last five, including a rare win for Columbus in San Jose on Saturday. Rick Nash has been on a scoring tear, leading the team with 12 goals and 16 points.

Pekka Rinne certainly has begun to heat up for Nashville. Since the second period in Toronto, Rinne has allowed one goal (GAA 0.41) and has an eye-popping Save Percentage of 98.3%.

Injury report for the Preds is fairly stable. Lombardi – out, Sute – listed as day-to-day but is not with the team, Legwand – day-to-day. Columbus lists Kristian Huselias and Ethan Moreau as out for tonight’s contest.

Coverage on 102.9 the Buzz and FS Tennessee, puck drop at 6:08pm.
