Friday's Dump & Chase: Hey! There's a Game Tonight!

Happy Friday everybody! After a long layoff between games, the Predators are back on the ice tonight against Dallas. Trades and injuries have altered the lineups of both teams since their last meeting, so what can we expect? Hopefully a hard fought game with a lot of guys trying to earn a spot for next season.
