GAME THREAD: Sharks @ Preds

While you won't be able to see Cody Franson play tonight, you can listen to his appearance on 102.5 The Game from yesterday, as well as check out a couple of game day links. If you're scoreboard-watching, the Blues are the only other top team in the Western Conference that's in action tonight, so throw some warm fuzzies at the Stars if you like. Can the Preds make it six wins in a row? Spoiler Alert: YES.
