The NHL Trade Deadline is tomorrow at 3:00 PM ET. The Nashville Predators will take on the Buffalo Sabres tonight at 8:00 PM at the Bridgestone Arena. The Predators are coming off a tough 4-3 loss to the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday night in overtime. The Predators are currently holding the final Wild Card spot in the Western Conference and are ahead of the St. Louis Blues and Seattle Kraken by six points but have played one more game than both those teams. Today they traded for a forward to help give them some depth in their bottom six by acquiring Anthony Beauvillier from the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for a fifth-round pick in the 2024 draft.
