For two periods, the Predators looked every ounce the best hockey team in the NHL.
Unfortunately, two periods was all they could muster as the San Jose Sharks scored three unanswered goals in the third period to defeat the Predators by the score of 5-4. While Viktor Arvidsson and Filip Forsberg had great games, the second line did not, as they were at fault for the vast majority of San Jose’s chances and, accordingly, goals.
The first forty minutes were some of the best that the Predators have played all season.
