Nashville Predators
The Predators have turned their season around over the holidays and into the first two weeks of 2023. Including their current four game win streak, the Predators are 7-1-2 in their last ten games and have overtaken the Colorado Avalanche for fifth place in the Central Division.
Filip Forsberg has been immense during the Predators four game winning streak, registering a point in three out of the four games. Forsberg has 15 goals and 19 assists for the Predators this season. Matt Duchene has also been a big contributor during the Predators run of success, scoring four goals and adding three assists over the last ten.
Juuse Saros is the expected starter for Nashville against the Leafs and will look to continue his stellar play in goal during this road swing. Saros stopped 67 shots in the win over Carolina before earning a 38 save shutout against the Ottawa Senators.
Toronto Maple Leafs
After a tough first week of 2023 that included a 5-1 embarrassment at home against the Seattle Kraken, the Leafs have rebounded nicely with two straight wins. Blowing out the Philadelphia Flyers 6-2 in their last outing on January 8.
Auston Matthews scored in the third period of the win over Philly but could be a big absence for the Leafs against Nashville. Matthews missed practice on Tuesday and is questionable to participate, potentially leaving the Leafs without their superstar scorer. If Matthews is out, Michael Bunting could step up and fill some of the scoring load after scoring six goals in the past ten games for Toronto.
Ilya Samsonov is the expected starter for the Leafs in goal. Samsonov has earned the starting job in Toronto thanks to a 12-3-0-1 record and a .916 save percentage as he has made the saves needed to win most nights for the Leafs this season.
