The first game in the NHL schedule for next Saturday corresponds to the clash between Nashville Predators and Los Angeles Kings, teams from the Western Conference that are currently having an opposite performance throughout the season. Even so, Nashville is expected to show a competitive face as they’ll play this game at home.
In this matter, Nashville Predators couldn’t keep away from the bottom spot of the Western Conference, being totally disappointing for them to keep remarking as the second worst defensive in their Conference with just 76 scored goals. Taking that into consideration is definitely having a negative impact on their performance due to the bad shape of players like Filip Forsbeeg and Jonathan Marchessault, which haven’t been able to increase their offensive competitiveness.
Meanwhile, Los Angeles Kings are still having a very productive season, not only because they’re in the second spot of the Pacific Division with 42 points, but also because they are one of the teams that have scored more than 100 goals throughout the season. Additionally, they currently remark as the best defensive in the Pacific division with only 82 conceded goals this season, so it isn’t weird to find them as the big favorites to win this game.
