The game between the Nashville Predators and Chicago Blackhawks will take place at Bridgestone Arena on Thursday, March 16 at 8:00 PM ET.
The Nashville Predators will welcome the Chicago Blackhawks to Bridgestone Arena for an NHL game on Thursday. The Florida Panthers won 2-1 in their last game over the Jets. Kiefer Sherwood had a goal and an assist, Juuse Saros made 28 saves and the Nashville Predators beat the Detroit Red Wings 2-1 on Tuesday night. Tommy Novak also scored to help Nashville win its third straight. The Predators were coming off a 4-1-1 trip.
“Yeah, throughout the lineup, just trying to play hard every night,” Novak said. “I think we still believe in this group a lot. Obviously, we have great defensemen, great goaltending and a lot of good forwards.” Nashville trails Winnipeg by four points in the rush for the Western Conference’s second wild-card berth, with Nashville having played three fewer games.
Sherwood opened the scoring at with 9:02 left in the second period. Colton Sissons won a battle in the left corner and sent to the puck to Philip Tomasino, who then drove toward the Detroit net. Just outside the crease, he slipped a nifty backhand pass through the legs of Red Wings defenseman Moritz Seider to Sherwood skating through the slot, where he snapped a quick shot past Husso. Sherwood has scored in consecutive games.
The Chicago Blackhawks on the other hand won 6-3 against the Bruins in their last game. Taylor Raddysh scored three goals and the Chicago Blackhawks beat Boston 6-3 on Tuesday night, handing the NHL-leading Bruins a second straight regulation loss for the first time this season. Raddysh’s first career hat trick gave him 20 goals for the season and six in his last four games. Chicago ended a three-game slide (0-2-1).
“The puck is just kind of finding its way in,” Raddysh said. “I gotta just keep going to the net and get to those areas where the puck is going to be.” Boris Katchouk scored a tiebreaking goal at 6:59 of the third period and added two assists for his first three-point game. Joey Anderson had a goal and an assist, and MacKenzie Entwistle also scored for Chicago, which entered tied for last place in the Western Conference.
