Leafs/Preds Nov 17 2011



The Leafs are in Nashville tonight taking on the Predators.

Leafs: 10-6-2  for 2nd in the North-East
Preds: 9-6-3 for 2nd in the Central

Leafs have won 1 of their last 5 games and the Preds have won 4 of their last 6 games.

In order for the Leafs to win this game they need to get secondary scoring and great goal tending. Last time they faced off, the Leafs came back from a 4-1 deficit to win the game 5-4 on goals from Versteeg (2) Grabovski, Kulemin, and Luke Schenn.

My prediction is Leafs over Preds 4-2 Kessel (2) Lupul, Gardiner.

Also, a report has surfaced that Jake Gardiner might be playing the role of a forward tonight.  I don't understand why they never did that with Kaberle.
