Nashville is in great shape, and the team's winning streak has already reached four matches in a row. After another successful performance on the home arena and two victories in duels with Seattle (3:1) and Vegas (4:1), the team went to visit the obvious outsider in Chicago, where they again achieved success, only in overtime (3:2). Striker Forsberg played superbly, scoring a double and giving an assist. Thanks to the large number of points scored, the Predators have risen to the eighth place in the Western Conference table, however, the position remains very shaky, as the advantage over the nearest opponent is only two points.
San Jose continues to move away from the playoff zone due to a prolonged recession. The club has already dropped to 11th place in the Western Conference table, and the gap from the eighth position is five points. The sharks are still unable to establish a defensive game and continue to concede a huge number of goals from match to match. The team has been unable to achieve success for four meetings in a row, and all of them ended in regular time. There were also complete failures, the Shakers were unable to give a decent rebuff to Buffalo (0:5), Ottawa (4:7) and Philadelphia (1:4).
Nashville got a great opportunity to extend its winning streak. Firstly, the team returned to the home arena, where it performs much better than on the road. Secondly, there is a clear outsider standing in the way, who is also in terrible shape. Sharks suffer crushing defeats from match to match, so there is absolutely no point betting in their favor.

In three face-to-face matches out of four, the teams scored more than eight goals.
В ночь с четверга на пятницу в Нэшвилле состоится встреча двух команд, которые пока не могут рассчитывать на плей-офф – Нэшвилл примет на своём домашнем льду Сан-Хосе. У хозяев дела обстоят немного лучше, чем у гостей, но всё же они не могут найти стабильности в последних матчах.
