The Bridgestone Arena will host the scheduled March 29, 2025, showdown between the Vegas Golden Knights and the Nashville Predators at 6:30 p.m. ET. As the season nears its end, Vegas is pushing hard to cement playoff standing, while Nashville is hoping to get back on track and end strong.

Golden Knights’ high-powered attack meets Predators’ struggles
Vegas has been one of the most prolific offensive teams this season, scoring 246 goals, which ranks them fourth in the NHL. Golden Knight forwards with incredible scoring depth have dealt with their opponents, mostly led by Jack Eichel's 91 points from 26 goals and 65 assists. Another huge contributor to playmaking has been Mark Stone, with 65 points, while Tomas Hertl has come in with scoring in bunches, logging 31 goals.

On a defensive note, Vegas has been very stout- only 191 goals against them, making them ranked seventh on the charts. The team's goaltender, Adin Hill, has brought life to their great records of 28-11-5 and a 2.49 goals-against average. His consistently playing in the penalty box has been crucial in maintaining the position of high overhead for Vegas in the Western Conference.
Nashville, on the other hand, has been very low on the performance side-in 183 goals scored, the team attends to be last in the NHL. Filip Forsberg is the leading performer with 66 points-such as 28 goals and 38 assists. Jonathan Marchessault contributed 50 points, while veteran Steven Stamkos remains a key presence with 44 points.

Defensively, the Predators have also struggled, giving up 232 goals this season. Juuse Saros has 53 starts under his belt, but he is struggling, earning an 18-28-6 record to go along with a .897 save percentage. The defensive instability of Nashville will be tested by the unyielding attack from Vegas.
