Scouting Take
The Nashville Predators profile as a middle-of-the-pack club still searching for a clear identity. They rely on extras more than you'd like — too many games going to OT. Losing more than they're winning lately. Concerning trajectory.
Every metric ranked vs. the league, sorted best to worst. Long bar = advantage.
Key Takeaway
No single area ranks above-average — a jack of all trades, master of none. Exposed in goal diff (32th) and point % (29th) and form (l10) (29th) and home (23th) and defense (19th) and hits (19th) and blocks (6th) — opponents will target these areas.
Rank out of 32 teams in each category.

82 games. Corsi (CF%) and Fenwick (FF%) are shot-attempt shares; xGF% weights those attempts by chance quality. PDO is shooting plus save percentage × 10 — it regresses hard toward 100, so a team far from it is usually running hot or cold rather than good or bad. Percentages are coloured against break-even at even strength only; special teams are lopsided by definition. These are raw, unadjusted totals — no score, venue or schedule adjustment.
