With the series tied 2-2, if there was a game the Nashville Predators needed to dominate to swing the series momentum in their favor, it was Game 5.
After Filip Forsberg took a slashing penalty early in the first period, it seemed like we were in for a long afternoon. The Preds managed to kill the penalty and Rocco Grimaldi followed it up with a goal to open up the scoring. Bridgestone absolutely came to life in true playoff fashion after that.
The Dallas Stars wasted no time putting the pressure back on Nashville.
