The Nashville Predators host the Vancouver Canucks at Bridgestone Arena on Nov. 3.
The Predators ended a three-game losing streak with a 4-2 win over the Calgary Flames on Nov. 1. Forward Michael Bunting recorded three points, including a goal in the first period. Nashville (5-6-2, 12 points) is now 3-3 on their current homestand.
With Cole Smith out with an upper-body injury for at least three weeks, Tyson Jost will enter the lineup, playing with Michael McCarron and Ozzy Wiesblatt. Defensemen Roman Josi and Adam Wilsby remain out of the lineup.
Vancouver (6-7-0, 12 points) lost 5-2 to the Minnesota Wild on Nov. 1. The biggest concern for the Canucks was the absence of Quinn Hughes, but he is expected to return to the lineup against the Predators. Injuries are the biggest story for Vancouver this season: Teddy Blueger, Filip Chytil, Conor Garland, Nils Hoglander, and Derek Forbort have all missed time.
The Predators will go with Juuse Saros in net, while the Canucks will go with either Thatcher Demko or Kevin Lankinen.
The Nashville Predators vs. Vancouver Canucks game will be televised by FanDuel Sports Network South with streaming available via FUBO and ESPN+ (outside of the Nashville TV market).
