Current Status: The Predators are winless and sit at the bottom of the Central Division, with Filip Forsberg leading the team with 5 points and 2 goals. Juuse Saros and Scott Wedgewood have both struggled in net, with Saros holding an .875 save percentage.
Recent Performance: The Bruins faced a tough game against Utah, losing despite forcing overtime, which allowed them to secure a point. They have not started the season as poorly as Nashville, who invested heavily in new talent but has not seen results, suffering from a poor goal differential.
Despite their struggles, Nashville is viewed as unlucky rather than fundamentally flawed, and the Bruins need to capitalize on this to gain momentum. This game could serve as a crucial turning point for Boston.
