(SportsNetwork. Edson Alvarez Jersey .com) - The Nashville Predators will attempt to claim a share of first place in the Central Division on Monday when they visit the Chicago Blackhawks for a showdown at United Center. A regulation win by Nashville tonight would put the Blackhawks and Predators in a tie for the division lead at 50 points apiece, but the latter club owns the current tiebreaker due to having played two fewer games. The Blackhawks, however, have won two of three meetings against Nashville this season and tonights matchup marks the season series finale. The Preds are 4-1-1 over the last six meetings against Chicago, but the Blackhawks have won four of the past six tilts in the Windy City. Nashville enters tonight having won four of its last five games and Peter Laviolettes club emerged from the Christmas break with Saturdays 4-1 home victory over the Philadelphia Flyers. It was Laviolettes first game against the Flyers since he was fired as the clubs head coach just three games into the 2013-14 season. The Predators dominated the Flyers in the special teams battle, converting three of five power-play opportunities while killing off all four of Philadelphias chances with the man advantage. Nashville cashed in when Matt Read and Claude Giroux were sent off 26 seconds apart in the latter portion of the second period for the Flyers. The Predators scored twice in a span of 38 seconds to go up by a 3-1 count. That was big, said Laviolette. I thought that the 5-on-3 we had lots of looks, lots of attempts. The 5-on-4 goal, to come back and get one right after, that was really important. Pekka Rinne stopped 26 shots for the win and Colin Wilson scored twice for the Preds. Filip Forsberg and Mike Fisher each had a goal and an assist. Prior to Saturday, Nashville had gone 2-for-48 at home (4.2 percent) while skating with the extra man but finished 3-for-5. Its nice getting (the power play) going, Wilson said. We need confidence in our power play. Hopefully it gets us going. Chicago also posted a win Saturday, notching a 5-2 triumph in Colorado behind a three-point night from Patrick Kane. Kane tallied two goals and an assist to help the Blackhawks bounce back from Tuesdays 5-1 home loss against Winnipeg. Brandon Saad, Brent Seabrook and Patrick Sharp all scored and Jonathan Toews supplied two assists for the Blackhawks, who went 2-for-4 on the power play while stopping all three of Colorados opportunities with the man advantage. Corey Crawford turned aside 23-of-25 shots for the win. We knew it wouldnt be easy, Toews said. We just came out and played the right type of game. The Blackhawks had won eight straight on home ice before Winnipeg dealt them their first setback at United Center since Nov. 7 against Washington. Chicago boasts a 12-4-1 mark at home, where it will play three of its next four games. Nashville, which plays at home tomorrow night against St. Louis, is 10-7-1 as the visiting team in 2014-15. Crawford is expected to start tonight for Chicago. He is 8-7-1 with a 2.69 goals against average against the Predators. Rinne has started 30 of 34 games for Nashville this season, but backup Carter Hutton could give him a breather tonight or Tuesday. Rinne is 14-11-3 with a 2.49 GAA in his career against Chicago and is 15-12-4 with a 2.15 GAA versus the Blues. Mexico Jerseys . Mark Van Guilder, Austin Watson and Colton Sissons also scored for the Admirals (22-13-10), who are 2-0-2 in their last four outings, while Roussel tacked on an assist for a two-point night. Greg Pateryn scored once for the Bulldogs (20-22-4), who lost their fifth straight contest, and also assisted on Gabriel Dumonts goal.

Theres the way the famed Riverwalk is transformed into a sea of lights at holiday time. Fiesta Noche del Rio, a summerlong outdoor performance of song and dance that dates back more than half a century. A huge rodeo, taking over the city for about three weeks every winter. And of late, theres been the Tim Duncan Watch. Unlike the others, this is one San Antonioians dread. But if he goes out now, hell be going out as a champion -- for the fifth time. San Antonios 104-87 win over the Miami Heat in Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night gave Duncan his fifth title, all with the Spurs. And throughout this series, speculation has been rampant that if the Spurs ended Miamis reign Duncan might finally feel like the time is right to end what will surely be a Hall of Fame career. "Amazing," Duncan said. "It makes last year OK." His first title was in 1999. Only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has a longer span between championships. "Its a very emotional time," Duncan said. When the 2011-12 season was threatened by a lockout, it was speculated that Duncan might have already played his last game. Hes certainly doesnt play for money anymore -- hes making about $10 million this season, a giant sum in the real world but well below market value by NBA standards -- and has always seemed to be a reluctant superstar. And then, every fall, Duncan shows up for training camp, the Spurs win a bunch of games, and the legacy just keeps growing. "I know hes got one more year on his contract, and he loves being with us, loves playing basketball," Spurs guard Tony Parker said. "Either way, whatever he decides, Ill support him. But if I have to choose, obviously, I would love him to keep going. I love playing with him." Its hard to find something in San Antonio more revered than the Spurs. "Go Spurs Go" signage hangs from what seems like every other building in the sprawling city. If someone is on the streets of San Antonio on game day and not wearing Spurs gear, chances are they live somewhere else. During the NBA Finals, its not uncommon for residents to strap Spurs flags onto thheir cars, drive through downtown and honk like crazy -- even on off days in the series. Carlos Salcedo Jersey. Duncan has never played for money anyplace else. Sunday was his 1,488th NBA game. Every one of them has been in a Spurs uniform. The only other players in NBA history to play that many games and never change teams: Utahs John Stockton and Indianas Reggie Miller. "He feels a responsibility to his teammates," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "He enjoys them. He wants to hang around as long as he can while hes useful and while hes having an impact on the game. He takes care of his body. He works out all summer long with a variety of different things, boxing, swimming. Hes very careful about what he puts in his body, so he does everything he can to maintain a level of play. "At some point," Popovich added, "that will stop." But when? Duncan insists he doesnt know. Its something he, Parker and Manu Ginobili -- the Spurs Big 3 -- have been hearing for years, that their demise and breakup is imminent. By now, they almost find it amusing. "Weve been on our last run for the last five or six years from how everyone wants to put it," Duncan said. "We show up every year, and we try to put together the best teams and the best runs possible because what people say doesnt matter to us. As I said, as long as we feel were being effective, were going to stay out here and were going to play. We feel like we can be effective, and we have been." Duncan is the 21st player in NBA history to win five rings with one team. Everyone else on that list played for the Lakers, Celtics or Bulls. That speaks to longevity and sustained greatness, which all factors in to the enormous legacy hell leave behind at some point. Again, though, thats not Duncans thinking. Not now. Not yet. First things first -- theres another parade coming to San Antonio. When the Spurs won the Western Conference title and earned their rematch shot with Miami, which won last years finals in a seven-game classic, Duncan vowed that San Antonio would win this time around. He was right. "This is the only one that counts right now," Duncan said. ' ' '
