Red Wings visit Predators seeking fifth straight win

Feb 10, 2009 - 2:43 PM Detroit (35-11-7) at Nashville (25-25-3), 8:00 pm EST

NASHVILLE, Tennessee (Ticker) -- Marian Hossa and the Detroit Red Wings have apparently righted the ship.

The defending Stanley Cup champion Red Wings will aim for their fifth consecutive victory Monday, when they visit the Nashville Predators in a rematch of last season's Western Conference quarterfinals.

Detroit, which lost a season-high five straight games before its current winning streak, is facing a team that is out for revenge for the second straight game.

In their first visit to Mellon Arena since hoisting the Stanley Cup there last June, the Red Wings cruised to a 3-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins. Pavel Datsyuk netted two goals and former Penguin Ty Conklin made 25 saves to record his sixth shutout of the season.

The Predators provided Detroit with its biggest obstacle before the Finals, taking the Red Wings to six games in the opening round.

Nashville had a four-game winning streak snapped with Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Dallas Stars.

Captain Jason Arnott scored the lone goal for the Predators, who had won five of their previous six contests.
