The Winnipeg Jets are playing the Nashville Predators in a game that is one of the top teams in the Central Division against one of the not top teams (I cannot tell if they are a bottom team or not because the West has some BAD teams this year). They will surely be in for a game though because the Jets are never great at soundly beating a team they are clearly better than (I hope they prove me wrong tonight).
The Predators are a team that doesn’t make a lot of sense. They have some good players, but their good players are all getting older and their young players have not come through yet it seems. They also have Cody Glass who was taken sixth overall in 2017 by the Vegas Golden Knights, but has not broken out like Nick Suzuki (who was also drafted and traded by the Knights).
