The Nashville Predators dominated the St. Louis Blues in both meetings so far this season.
In the Dec. 11 matchup, Steven Stamkos scored four goals en route to a 7-2 Predators win. Four days later in St. Louis, Filip Forsberg scored a hat trick in the Predators’ 5-2 win over the Blues.
It’s a complete turnaround from last season, as the Predators did not win a game against the Blues, going 0-4-0 in their meetings.
Nashville has battled back in the Central Division after starting the year 1-5-2 against Central Division opponents; they are now 5-6-2 against local opposition.

The Predators have seemingly dug themselves out of a hole created in the first month and a half of the season, and are beginning to move up in the standings.
Nashville has won 10 of its last 14 and three straight. It’s the Predators’ longest winning streak of the season and longest since they won four straight from March 4, 2025, to March 11.
A win against the Blues would give Nashville its first winning record since Oct. 25, when it defeated the Los Angeles Kings 5-4 in a shootout to improve to 4-3-2 on the year. Defeating St. Louis would move Nashville to 17-16-4 on the season.
