If you tuned into the game a little late, you didn’t miss much. Pekka Rinne was a monster in net when it mattered most. Colton Sissons opened the scoring for the Predators at 6:49 of the first. Sissons was able to pick up a puck right in front of Chicago netminder Collin Delia and ripped it over Delia’s shoulder. Kevin Fiala and Mattias Ekholm assisted on the goal.
Dan Hamhuis took Nashville’s first trip to the penalty box with a little less than 3 minutes remaining in the first period.
