The Predators are currently on a three game winning streak where they’ve scored five goals in each game, but have been giving up more and more each game: They beat the Kings 5-0, the Rangers 5-2, and the Islanders 5-4 in overtime. Extrapolating this, the Leafs will win by 6-5 in a shootout. The wonderful, great, practically perfect in every way Maple Leafs were on a four game win streak until the Bruins ruined it, but came back to defeat the Ducks 7-4 last night. Can the Leafs keep their winning ways going? ### Toronto Maple Leafs lines Zach Hyman - Auston Matthews - William Nylander Patrick Marleau - Nazem Kadri - Mitchell Marner James van Riemsdyk - Tyler Bozak - Connor Brown Leo Komarov - Dominic Moore - Kasperi Kapanen The forwards are doing well these days, especially since the last roster shake up gave us Kapanen over Martin, and Komarov down to the fourth line, and Kadri away from Leo. Morgan Rielly - Ron Hainsey Jake Gardiner - Nikita Zaitsev Travis Dermott - Roman Polak OH NO ROMAN POLAK! Frederik Andersen Curtis McElhinney OH NO THE TWITTER DOCTORS! ### Nashville Predators lines Colton Sissons - Ryan Johansen - Viktor Arvidsson Kevin Fiala - Kyle Turris - Craig Smith Scott Hartnell - Nick Bonino - Calle Jarnkrok Miikka Salomaki - Austin Watson - Pontus Aberg I don’t know who most of these people are, since the Predators don’t have a forward corps that people talk about much. Kevin Fiala is a pretty amazing player though. Roman Josi - Ryan Ellis Mattias Ekholm - P.K. Subban Alexei Emelin - Yannick Weber Ah, here’s what we know about Nashville. They high flying defence. Damn they have such a good top four. And before anyone on the broadcast can say it, Roman Josi was taken with a Leafs pick, but hey we got Yanic Perreault out of the deal.... Pekka Rinne Juuse Saros Hey we get Vezina caliber Rinne and the Sens get Saros. No matter, the Leafs made minced meat out of Lundqvist, so whats another laplander to get in our way? ### Numbers Preview | Maple Leafs | Team | Devils | | --------------------------- | ----------------- | ----------------------- | | 265GF - 226GA - +29 | Goal Differential | 238GF - 234GA - +4 | | 24.4% - 2nd overall | Power Play | 21.7 - 10th overall | | 81.3% - 12th overall | Penalty Kill | 81.9% - 7th overall | | James van Riemsdyk - 36 | Most Goals | Taylor Hall - 39 | | Mitch Marner - 47 | Most Assists | Taylor Hall - 54 | | Mitch Marner - 69 | Most Points | Taylor Hall - 93 | | Matt Martin - 50 | Most PM | Miles Wood - 84 | | Jake Gardiner - 22:33/G | TOI Leader | Sami Vatanen - 22:42 | | Frederik Andersen - .917sv% | Starting Goalie | Keith Kincaid - .911sv% | Tonight we get treated to two top teams facing off and we should be in for some real good hockey.
