If you couldn't tell by the title, your Winnipeg Jets close out their season series against division rival Nashville Predators tonight. The series is also tied. After Sunday's snoozefest covered by yours truly, the Jets try to reinvigorate the line-up by calling up 2012 3rd Round Draft Selection Scott Kosmachuk from the struggling Moose. If he plays, it will be the 22 year old's NHL debut.
The Predators come into tonight's game running on a 12 game point streak (8-0-4), which happens to be a franchise record. Filip Forsberg can be thanked for the streak putting up 21 points in the last 14 games. (Imagine if Washington never traded him…)
You can catch the game tonight at 7 PM on TSN 3, or Fox Sports Nashville.

Calle Jarnkrok – Ryan Johansen – James Neal
Filip Forsberg – Mike Ribero – Craig Smith
