A pivotal Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs play-in round series between the Arizona Coyotes and Nashville Predators highlights Wednesday’s schedule.

The Arizona Coyotes shocked the Nashville Predators in Game 1 of their Stanley Cup Playoffs play-in round series, but the Predators answered them yesterday with an impressive 4-2 win in Game 2. On Wednesday, August 5, the two teams square off in what should prove to be a pivotal Game 3.

Yesterday, the Preds played the kind of hockey they like to play. They got out to an early lead and then suffocated the Coyotes. It wasn’t until the final two minutes that the Coyotes were able to get on the board.

PREVIEW

NASHVILLE PREDATORS

The Predators finished Game 1 strong, nearly completing a comeback. They were able to carry that momentum into Game 2. The Preds played an opportunistic game, capitalizing on Arizona’s mistakes.

It’s not known who will start in goal. Since it’s a back-to-back, this could mean Pekka Rinne gets the nod. But considering how well he played in Game 2, it’s hard to see the Predators taking Juuse Saros out of the net.

ARIZONA COYOTES

The Coyotes weren’t able to convert on some early scoring chances in Game 2, which ultimately cost them. It’s unknown who will get the start in goal, especially with Raanta apparently injured. This could mean Adin Hill will get the start.
