Detroit at Nashville

The Nashville Predators own a commanding 3-1 lead in their series with the Detroit Red Wings. However, they haven't exactly dominated them as they have outscored them by all of 2 goals for the series at 11-9. The Red Wings have an elongated playoffs resume and have not lost an opening series since 2006, so don't count them out just yet. The Predators’ last two playoffs series both ended in elimination to the Detroit Red Wings. Detroit is 15-6 in their last 21 in this round, while the Predators face a spot where they have had little success, as they are now 9-20 in their last 29 on two days of rest. Play on Detroit.
