Tage Thompson leads the team in almost all offensive categories with 42 goals and 87 points, but Rasmus Dahlin just edges him out in assists with 49.

Photo by Bruce Bennett/ This was a game to forget. The shorthanded Nashville Predators, now minus Roman Josi as well, headed east to face the New York Rangers. While the Preds had an early flurry of chances against Jaroslav Halák, it was Filip Chytil who drew first blood, scoring past (or through) Kevin Lankinen at 2:37. Mika Zibanejad followed that up just under five minutes later with a second Rangers goal. Less than a minute after that, Tyler Motte scored to make it 3-0 at 8:14. Tyson Barrie then hooked Vincent Trocheck sixteen seconds after that, sending the...
