Command Analysis
Detroit Red Wings
USADetroit have quite a strong squad this season, but they struggle to fully realize their potential. Of course, injuries play a big role - Zadina, Fabbri, and Vrana are all out injured. The team is currently in 8th place in the East.
After a string of four defeats, the Red Wings crushed San Jose (7:4), and defeated Columbus (6:1) away from home. Usually, Detroit don't score so many goals even at their home arena. The team normally shows its best performance in second periods.
Nashville Predators
USANashville are 10th in the West with 20 points. The team has recently improved its performance and collected points in the previous five home games. For example, the Predators overcame the Islanders (5:4), lost to Tampa in overtime (2:3 OT), and beat Arizona in a penatly shootout (4:3 SO).
Most of the Preds' victories were earned in close games, often outside regulation time. John Hynes' team usually concedes at least four goals per game on road trips. They also won only two games within 60 minutes.
