Players to target: Gabriel Landeskog, Nathan MacKinnon, and Mikko Rantanen
The Colorado Avalanche's top line will get a sneaky-good matchup against the Nashville Predators, who are on a road back-to-back after playing the Arizona Coyotes last night. It's safe to say the MacKinnon line is rolling after their combined 10 points last night in an impressive road win against the St. Louis Blues.
They should match up with the Ryan Johansen line, which allows 26.4 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes and 11.8 High-Danger Chances Against per 60 minutes on the year. The Predators have also been short-handed the most times this year, so this trio should have multiple opportunities to create points on the power-play as well.
