In their last game against the Ottawa Senators, the Predators secured a convincing 3-0 victory. Their goaltending was impeccable, with a save percentage of 100 percent from 38 shots faced. This shutout win highlighted Nashville's defensive prowess and goal-tending strength.


The team's offensive side has also been firing on all cylinders. Over the past three games, they've scored an average of over three goals per game while maintaining shooting percentages in double digits – an indicator of efficient scoring ability. Notably, their power play opportunities haven't been fully capitalized upon yet; however, this could be an area for potential growth in upcoming matches.


Faceoffs have been somewhat challenging for Nashville; despite winning less than half of their faceoffs in recent games, they've still managed to control the pace and emerge victorious. This resilience will be crucial as they go up against Toronto's formidable lineup.


Defensively speaking, blocked shots and takeaways are areas where Nashville has excelled consistently. By disrupting opponent plays and protecting their net effectively, they've built a solid foundation that contributes significantly to their current success streak.


As we look towards this upcoming clash at Scotiabank Arena – known for its energetic atmosphere which could influence any team’s performance – it is clear that if Nashville continues these trends while possibly improving on power play conversions and faceoff wins, they stand a good chance of extending their winning momentum.


Fans eager to catch this exciting matchup can tune in on January 12th at 00:30 AM UTC time via TNT (channel 245) nationally or SportsNet and TVAS internationally for live coverage from Toronto's renowned venue.
