Nashville Predators 2, Edmonton Oilers 0: Defense Steps Up, Rinne Earns Second Shutout

The last time the Preds and Oilers played, they gave us one of the most entertaining games of the season. Nashville is still without Roman Josi, who is reportedly nearing a return.

Almost a full seven minutes went by before the first shot on goal was recorded, and that one shouldn’t really count because it was from center ice. A lot of excitement going on as pucks are flying, hits are coming, and both goalies playing fairly well. The first ends in a scoreless tie, as McDavid and company were held to only four shots on goal.

Viktor Arvidsson gets the Preds on the scoreboard first 1:26 into the period, as he hammers home a beauty of a shot.
