Game Notes

NSH
?Rinne (15-10-2, 2.31 GAA, .919 Sv%) will likely start for the Predators
?Rinne started the season with a fantastic 14 games, going 9-2-1 with a .944 Sv%. In his last 16 games though he's gone just 6-8-1 with a .895 Sv%
?Back-up Juuse Saros is 3-0-1 in his last 3 starts with a .972 Sv%. That includes Nashville's most recent win against Montreal. So it's possible he gets an extra start here
?Nashville's been missing some key players due to injury this season, but they had Subban (out 19 games) and Arvidsson (out 21 games) return to the line recently
?Filip Forsberg has been skating and his return seems close too. Forsberg's been out since November 29th but is still tied for the team lead in goals with 14

TOR
?Hutchinson (2-2-2, 3.39 GAA, .878 Sv%) will likely start for the Leafs
?Andersen and Sparks are both being careful with their injuries, so Hutchinson gets another start. Expect Kaskisuo to back-up again

Nashville is also playing 3 games in 4 nights like the Canucks were, but the Preds aren't a cream-puff team like Vancouver so this one worries me tonight.
 
oh cool, hometown boy Hutch is in net tonight!

he went to school with my daughter. Elementary school. like THAT many years ago already.

Go Hutch! <3
 
Leafs really moving up the ice well so far.  Hainsey (!) has made a couple of nice passes.
 
SOG are misleading for sure, seems Leafs have had the better looks on offense so far.

9-2 shots for the preds.  Weird.  Feels like the leafs are carrying the play.
Preds blocked quite a few shots and Leafs had the post on a couple too
 
I like how the Leafs' speed and good passing has created some open ice in the attacking zone, much more than I expected the Predators D to give up.
