Current odds:

Nashville Predators: (TBD)

Arizona Coyotes: (TBD)

 

• Nashville closed out October with seven losses in eight games before matching its season-high goal total in Colorado, but coach Peter Laviolette is making sure his team doesn’t get too complacent. ”

• The Coyotes also are coming off their most impressive effort of the season, edging reigning Western Conference finalist San Jose 3-2 in just their third home game of the season. Arizona has struggled against the Predators in recent years, with a 4-0 home victory last January accounting for its only win in the last eight matchups.

• Goaltender Pekka Rinne has surrendered at least three goals in four consecutive games before turning aside 28 shots against the Avalanche to earn his first win since Oct. 14 and quiet his critics.

• Arizona has a beleaguered netminder of its own in Louis Domingue, who has been forced to carry the workload since starter Mike Smith was injured in the second game of the season. Domingue was dented for at least three goals in each of his first seven appearances before a season-high 39-save effort against the Sharks on Tuesday.

• Predators F Filip Forsberg collected a pair of assists to give him seven on the season, but he’s still seeking his first goal
