The Detroit Red Wings and Nashville Predators are both looking for answers during losing streaks.
The Red Wings will try to avoid a season-high fourth straight loss, while looking to hand the Predators a fifth straight defeat when the Central Division rivals meet Friday night.
Nashville (29-20-3) leads Detroit (25-19-9) by two points heading into the teams’ first meeting at Joe Louis Arena this season. They have split two meetings in Nashville, with the Red Wings winning 3-2 in overtime Dec. 11 to snap a four-game skid in the series.
The Predators are on their longest slide since a six-game losing streak Oct. 10-21 in which they scored a total of six goals. Three losses in this skid have been by one goal heading into the finale of a four-game trip.
“Something has to be done — four in a row,” forward Steve Sullivan said. “We are starting to feel the heat now from behind us in the standings. We are not as comfortable now as we were a week a go. We have to find a way to get some wins.”
