Tonight, the Nashville Predators clashed with the Los Angeles Kings in their third game of the season. After watching 40 minutes of some of the most mind-numbing hockey in recent memory and 20 minutes of fun stuff, we bring you this recap of the evening’s events.
What went right?
The Predators jumped on the Kings early and for the most part kept things even or better, outside of a stretch following the game’s opening goal by Anze Kopitar. The forwards won puck battles and took the puck to the net; the defense was mostly up to the task of limiting LA to the perimeter.
