The Nashville Predators and the Seattle Kraken are both hoping for a chance at the postseason, and tonight the teams face off in the first of two back to back games. Today we're joined by Erica Ayala, host of Locked On Kraken to talk Martin Jones, Luke Evangelista and Tommy Novak, and of course THE hot button topic of the season...Eeli Tolvanen.

Tonight the Preds welcome the Kraken to Bridgestone Arena for the first of two matchups, and both teams desperately need these four points to stay in the playoff conversation. Erica Ayala, host of Locked On Kraken, joins us to talk about Seattle's up and down season. She shares the goaltending challenges Martin Jones and Philipp Grubauer have faced and how expectations for the Kraken have recently shifted. She tells us how Seattle's trade deadline inactivity may be shaping a narrative for the team and what the Kraken need to do to leave Bridgestone with four points after these two games. Finally, we have THE conversation everyone in Nashville wants to listen in on. We'll tell you what Seattle head coach Dave Hakstol said about former Predator Eeli Tolvanen that may rile up Predators fans one more time.
