Minnesota at Nashville

Minnesota is hot but thin on depth, missing key forwards Erik Haula and Zach Parise to injury and illness. The Wild head out on the road and are 1-11 when playing on three or more days of rest. This is the end of a three-game road trip for them. Nashville is 10-4-1 at home, ranked ninth in the NHL in goals scored, and #11 on the power play. The Predators come off a shutout loss but are 8-2 after scoring two or fewer goals in their previous game, plus 14-6 when playing on three or more days of rest. Take Nashville.
