NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) -- A year ago the Nashville Predators made a stunning turnaround, shooting up the Central Division standings with a franchise-record 18-game point streak in February and March to help secure a playoff berth. The Preds are going to need a similar turnaround after amassing the fewest points in the NHL through the first third of the season.

Nashville currently sits in last place in the Central Division and is in the middle of an eight-game losing streak as it faced the Stars in Dallas. Predators play-by-play announcer Willy Daunic shares his thoughts on why the offense has failed to produce so far this season and what has to happen for the team to climb out of the cellar.
