The Nashville Predators make the 3rd stop on a 5-game road trip, stopping at Rogers Place in Vancouver, British Columbia to take on the skidding Canucks. The Predators lost a tough 3-2 game against 1st-place Buffalo to start the trip Saturday, while bouncing back Tuesday in Seattle for a 4-2 win behind Juuse Saros. The Predators have won 2 of the past 3 games, while allowing 3 or fewer goals in 4 in a row. This is the first meeting this season in Vancouver. The teams met twice in Nashville prior to November 3, with the Canucks winning 5-4 in overtime in the most recent meeting.

The Canucks were major sellers at the NHL trade deadline, and they look about as disinterested as a hockey club can be. Vancouver has scored just 2 goals in the past 2 games, including a 2-0 loss to the Ottawa Senators on Monday. Vancouver is just 1-6-3 in the past 10 games, and a dismal 3-18-5 across the previous 26 outings, picking up just 11 out of a possible 52 points. Kevin Lankinen is just 7-21-5 with a 3.64 GAA and .876 SV%. He is expected to be in net opposite Saros. Look for Nashville to come away with the convincing road win.
