The Bruins bounced back on Tuesday night with a 3-2 overtime win over the West-leading Dallas Stars on the road. The Bruins, with far and away the best record in the NHL, had gone 1-3-1 heading into Dallas. The five-game stretch was by far their worst of the season. On Tuesday night, Boston trailed 2-1 before rallying to tie the game in the third thanks to a Pavel Zacha goal and winning it with 1:16 left in overtime on a David Pastrnak. The Bruins now have a league-leading 40 wins on the season.

The Bruins hope to get back on a winning streak after pulling out a big win in Dallas on Tuesday night. This will be the Bruins first matchup with the Predators this season after sweeping the series last year. Boston comes in with the second highest scoring offense in the NHL. Boston is also fifth in the NHL in shooting percentage. Defensively, the Bruins are allowing the ninth fewest shots per game and have the #1 goals against average in the league. Boston's specialty units have been strong this season, ranking 7th in power play percentage and first in the NHL in penalty kills.
Key Injuries: LW Jake DeBrusk will likely remain out after missing the Dallas game on Tuesday night also.
