Can the Predators Continue Their Winning Streak Against the Kraken?
As the Nashville Predators prepare to face off against the Seattle Kraken at Climate Pledge Arena, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain their recent momentum. The Predators have been on a notable upswing, showcasing a blend of offensive prowess and defensive resilience in their latest games.
In their last three matches, Nashville has secured two wins and an overtime loss, collecting five out of a possible six points. This streak includes an impressive victory over the Minnesota Wild with a dominant 6-1 scoreline and a hard-fought game against the Montreal Canadiens that ended in a narrow 3-4 defeat in overtime. Their offensive output has been remarkable; they've netted 14 goals across these games while allowing only six against them.
A key factor contributing to this success is Nashville's power play performance. They capitalized on two out of three opportunities against Colorado Avalanche, which played a significant role in their 5-1 triumph. However, maintaining discipline will be crucial as they've also spent considerable time shorthanded due to penalties.
The upcoming game presents another challenge for Nashville as they take on Seattle away from home. The Kraken's arena may pose its unique challenges with its energetic crowd and distinct playing conditions.
Fans can expect Nashville to continue leveraging their strengths: robust goal-tending that has seen them save over ninety-nine percent of shots faced recently and an aggressive offense that isn't afraid to shoot from all angles—evidenced by thirty-five shots taken during their win over Colorado.
The match is scheduled for March 17th at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Washington. Fans can catch all the action live on ESPN+ online or tune into BSSO or ROOT Sports NW for television coverage starting at 7:00 PM local time (2:00 AM UTC).
