The Nashville Predators and Edmonton Oilers faced off tonight at Bridgestone Arena, both teams with postseason considerations in mind. Cody Glass saw ice for the Preds again, while Matt Luff was out with non-COVID illness. Mark Borowiecki was also out this game, with Jeremy Lauzon filling in.
The visitors got off to a strong start early, although the Preds initially held their own in shot quality in spite of that thanks to one early push. While the Oilers peppered Saros with shots, the Preds’ defense was mostly able to keep those shots to the outside while getting some close-up chances of their own.
