An impressive run by Columbus of late, but let's hold the phone for a moment. They just finished a huge home stand and this team is 3-8-1 on the road. Columbus is No. 30 in the NHL in goals scored with one of the worst power plays (No. 28). The Blue Jackets are 15-43 in their last 58 road games and 16-41 against the NHL Central. Nashville looks to make it two wins in a row after a 5-3 victory over Calgary on Thursday. Mike Fisher scored twice and Martin Erat registered a goal and two assists as the Predators extended their home point streak to four games (3-0-1). That victory was the beginning of a four-game stretch at home, where the Predators are 7-2-4 and they are 32-15 in their last 47 home games. In fact, Nashville plays 12 of its final 18 contests at home. Nashville is solid on defense (No. 11 in goals allowed). When these teams meet the home team is 22-9 in the last 31 meetings, and the Blue Jackets are 4-28-1 in the last 33 meetings in Nashville! Play Nashville.
