The Nashville Predators will play the Colorado Avalanche tonight without starting net minder Juuse Saros who is out for the remaining two regular season games with a lower body injury. On today's show, Nick and Ann share the latest update from head coach John Hynes on Saros' condition and what expectations are for his return in the post season. We debate the wisdom of starting back up David Rittich or Milwaukee Admirals call up Connor Ingram in net tonight against a potent Colorado offense. We also preview tonight's game at Ball Arena. What do the Nashville Predators need to focus on to be competitive against the top team in the Central? And all eyes will be on Roman Josi and Cale Makar - the two top contenders for the Norris Trophy. Will tonight's game make up voters' minds? Finally, we call out one particular player who absolutely needs to step up his game tonight. Who is it and what we think may happen if he underperforms again?
