KEY GAME INFORMATION
NASHVILLE: LAST SEASON: 38-32-12, 88 points. Missed the playoffs by finishing 10th in the Western Conference.
COACH: Peter Laviolette, 1st season with Predators, 389-282-25-63 overall.
ADDED: F James Neal, F Olli Jokinen, F Mike Ribeiro, F Derek Roy.
LOST: Coach Barry Trotz, goaltenders coach Mitch Korn, F Patric Hornqvist, F Nick Spaling.
PLAYER TO WATCH: G Pekka Rinne. Even with Ribeiro needing to prove his personal issues have been handled, Rinne is the two-time Vezina Trophy finalist who anchors Nashville's defense. He only played 24 games last season after an infection in his surgically-repaired hip needed more surgery, keeping him on crutches for weeks. Rinne went 3-0-1 in his final four games and was the MVP of the World Championships.
OUTLOOK: The Predators missed the playoffs by three points with Rinne missing much of last season. Laviolette is expected to boost the Predators' offense and take advantage of the experienced forwards added during the offseason, and general manager David Poile has made it clear they must reach the playoffs.
COLORADO: LAST SEASON: 52-22-8, 112 points. Won the Central Division. Lost to Minnesota 4-3 in first round of playoffs.
COACH: Patrick Roy, 2nd season with Colorado, 52-22-8; 2nd overall in NHL.
ADDED: RW Jarome Iginla, D Brad Stuart, C Daniel Briere, C Jesse Winchester.
LOST: RW P.A. Parenteau, F Paul Stastny, G Jean-Sebastien Giguere, D Andre Benoit, D Cory Sarich.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Nathan MacKinnon. As hard as this may be to believe, the speedy 19-year-old may have even gotten faster in the offseason working out with the likes of Matt Duchene and Pittsburgh's Sidney Crosby. MacKinnon was the league's rookie of the year in 2013-14 after scoring 24 goals and dishing out 39 assists. Roy isn't concerned with a sophomore jinx with MacKinnon, saying, ''I think Nate's going to do a very good job this year despite the way people think about a second-year player.''
OUTLOOK: The Avalanche surprised the hockey world by winning the Central Division in Roy's first season. Now, Roy's eager to see his squad take the next step, which is to go even deeper into the postseason. The team added more veteran leadership by signing Iginla, along with trading for Briere and Stuart. They also have Alex Tanguay back after he missed most of the season with knee and hip injuries. Colorado boasts two formidable lines that will include some combination of Matt Duchene, Ryan O'Reilly, captain Gabe Landeskog, Iginla, Tanguay and MacKinnon. Roy is still tinkering to find the best pairings.

*Predators-Avalanche Preview* =============================

By NICOLINO DIBENEDETTO STATS Writer

Nashville (31-10-6) at Colorado (20-18-11), 9:00 p.m. EDT

Dominance at home is a big reason why the Nashville Predators are atop the Central Division, but they would like to be much more consistent on the road.

Another meeting with the Colorado Avalanche could be a way to start.

The Predators attempt to snap a season-high three-game road losing streak Friday night with a second victory over the Avalanche this week.

Nashville (31-10-6) owns the best home record in the NHL at 19-2-1, but that hasn't carried over to the road where its 12-8-5. The Predators have only managed to win back-to-back games on the road three times compared to posting winning streaks of eight and seven games on home ice.

They blew a two-goal lead Thursday at St. Louis before falling 5-4 in a shootout, allowing the surging Blues to close within four points of the division lead.

Still, coach Peter Laviolette found some solace in Nashville outshooting St. Louis 15-6 in the third, as James Neal's goal with 2:38 to play gave his club at least a point for the 13th time in 14 games (9-1-4).

"The third period our guys showed up and really I think hit the gas pedal, generated a lot of forecheck play searching for that goal," Laviolette said. "I thought we could have scored four or five goals in that period."

Scoring hasn't been an issue against the Avalanche, with Nashville averaging 3.83 goals during a 13-3-2 run in the series.

Craig Smith's overtime goal lifted the Predators to a 4-3 home victory Tuesday after they opened the season series with a 3-0 win in Denver on Dec. 9.

Nashville is 6-2-1 in the last nine games there, averaging 3.67 goals.

Filip Forsberg has four points in three meetings with the Avalanche, scoring a goal Tuesday before tallying again versus St. Louis. The right wing leads all rookies with 17 goals and 41 points.

Also contributing lately for Nashville is Mike Fisher, who had two goals Thursday and has five in his last six road games. He has 21 points in 26 games after starting the season on injured reserve with a ruptured Achilles tendon.

The Avalanche (20-18-11) have gone past regulation in four of their past six games, going 2-1-3. Third-period rallies have been responsible for all their points over the past four contests (1-1-2).

Colorado got another at Nashville on Tuesday after Nick Holden scored with 36 seconds left in regulation.

"I like the way we were resilient," coach Patrick Roy said. "When you're chasing a playoff spot, you need to find any kind of ways to win, get back in the game or tie the game. We've been showing great urgency and our players deserve a lot of credit for the way we've been playing."

Semyon Varlamov deserves a fair share of it, going 5-2-2 with a 2.21 goals-against average over his past nine starts. He made 35 saves in Tuesday's overtime loss.

Varlamov owns a 4.16 GAA in his last four meetings with Nashville, but is 6-1-0 with a 2.08 GAA in his past seven at home overall.

Jarome Iginla's goal Tuesday gave him six in his last seven matchups with the Predators.
