Preview Roundups
December 19, 2016
Nashville at Philadelphia 7:00 PM ET
To a man, the Philadelphia Flyers embraced a positive attitude despite a negative result on the heels of seeing their longest winning streak in 31 years come to an end. With their 10-game run of good fortune now history at the hands of one Central Division representative, the Flyers look to exact revenge against another on Monday when they open a two-game homestand versus the Nashville Predators.
Detroit at Carolina 7:00 PM ET
The Detroit Red Wings hope to build off a season-high offensive explosion when they start a difficult stretch on the road by visiting the Carolina Hurricanes on Monday night. The Red Wings, who play 10 of the next 11 games away from home, enjoyed a 6-4 victory over Anaheim on Saturday after suffering through an 0-3-1 stretch in which they managed just three tallies.
Anaheim at Toronto 7:30 PM ET
Randy Carlyle is doing his best to put Monday's return to the Air Canada Centre in perspective. Currently behind the bench for the Anaheim Ducks, Carlyle leads his charges against the team he coached for parts of four seasons and played with during his NHL career when he visits the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Edmonton at St. Louis 8:00 PM ET
The NHL’s top two scorers will be on display when Connor McDavid’s Edmonton Oilers visit Vladimir Tarasenko and the St. Louis Blues on Monday night. McDavid has only one of his league-leading 39 points in the last four games, but recorded the deciding shootout tally in a 3-2 win over Tampa Bay while Tarasenko (37) was being blanked in a 6-4 loss to Chicago at home on Saturday.
Calgary at Arizona 9:00 PM ET
The Calgary Flames have answered a season-high six-game winning streak by stumbling to back-to-back losses while concluding a three-game homestand. The Flames look to regain their footing on the road Monday when they open a two-game trek against the Pacific Division-rival Arizona Coyotes.
