First Screen Viewing
Canadiens vs. Predators – 7pm
You might not have noticed, but the Preds have been kind of mediocre for a little while now, which of course brings me no joy whatsoever. They’re only four points behind Winnipeg but also have played two games more, and it’s become clear that they only have one line that can score. Real shame, that. Which makes tonight an interesting test because though the Habs might not have a #1 line, they certainly come at you in waves. And the Preds don’t hold back. And there’s the whole Weber-Subban thing, though does anyone really care anymore? Should be a good one, though.
Second Screen Viewing
Capitals vs. Sharks – 9:30
It still seems silly to argue that the Caps aren’t that good when they are the reigning champs and are still just outside leading their division. But they’re also trailing the Islanders, and they did give up a snowman to the Hawks. They continue their Western swing in San Jose, where the Sharks would be in Lightning territory if it wasn’t for their goaltending. They haven’t even needed Erik Karlsson of late to kick everyone’s skull in. This is your conference favorite and I just don’t care.
