Preview Roundups
October 15, 2018
Los Angeles at Toronto 7:30 PM ET
The Toronto Maple Leafs and their high-powered offense attempt to extend their winning streak to five contests when they begin a three-game homestand Monday against the Los Angeles Kings. Toronto has recorded 23 goals on its string of victories while league leader Auston Matthews (10) has registered four two-goal performances during his season-opening six-game streak.
Detroit at Montreal 7:30 PM ET
The Detroit Red Wings are still seeking their first victory of the season after an embarrassing performance last time out and hope to begin turning things around Monday, when they visit the improving Montreal Canadiens. The Red Wings, who began a tough four-game road trip with an 8-2 loss at Boston, are last in the league in goals allowed (4.40) due in part to an injury-depleted defense.
Dallas at Ottawa 7:30 PM ET
The Dallas Stars would like to bottle their effort from a dominant second period last time out and use it throughout the rest of the season, beginning with a road contest against the Ottawa Senators on Monday. The Stars registered 30 shots in the middle session Saturday to erase a three-goal deficit and went on to defeat Anaheim 5-3 for their third victory in four games to open the campaign.
Minnesota at Nashville 8:00 PM ET
The Nashville Predators aim to conclude their four-game homestand with a third straight victory when they host the Central Division-rival Minnesota Wild on Monday. Nashville was blanked by Calgary in the opener of the string of contests at Bridgestone Arena before totaling eight goals in triumphs over Winnipeg and the New York Islanders.
