    Stan Szeto-USA TODAY Sports - Pregame Preview #68: Sharks Look To Finish Road Trip With A Win Against Red-Hot Predators

    The San Jose Sharks (16-44-7) are 0-4 during this five-game road trip, which ends with a visit to the Nashville Predators (39-25-4).

    Nashville is in the midst of a hot streak, having scored at least a point in the last 14 games. During those 14 games, they had a record of 12-0-2. Their franchise record for a point streak is 15 during the 2017-18 season.

    Jan Rutta is expected to get back in the lineup tonight, which could push Jacob MacDonald back forward. 

    Magnus Chrona continues to play as the Sharks' No. 1 netminder while Mackenzie Blackwood works his way back from a lower-body injury.

    While the rest of the lineup isn't set, some players have played well, that has caused them to be moved up the lineup. Klim Kostin seems to fit in with the top line very well and scored again in the last game. 

    Kevin Labanc has points in back-to-back games, which could keep him in the lineup. Alexander Barabanov was moved from the top line down to the 4th line. 

    The official lineup won't be known until warmups. 

    Sharks projected line combinations:

    Zetterlund-Granlund-Kostin
    Zadina-Eklund-Kunin
    Bordeleau-Sturm-MacDonald
    Bailey-Carpenter-Labanc

    Ferraro-Burroughs
    Thrun-Rutta
    Vlasic-Addison

    Chrona
    Cooley 

    Puck drop is at 5 p.m. and can be seen on NBC Sports California or the Sharks Audio Network.
