Matchup Breakdown
Predators outlook: Nashville ended a three-game skid by beating Calgary 4-2 Saturday. Filip Forsberg and Ryan O’Reilly lead with nine points each. Juuse Saros stopped 21 of 22 shots in the previous win over Vancouver and should start again before Justus Annunen likely handles Tuesday’s game at Minnesota.
Canucks outlook: Vancouver has lost five straight, allowing 24 goals during that span. Quinn Hughes could return after missing four games with a lower-body injury, which would stabilize a defense allowing 33 shots per night. The Canucks’ penalty kill ranks near the bottom of the league at 71.1%.
