Things got a little chippy thanks to the New York Rangers, but that didn’t stop the momentum the Nashville Predators are currently riding.
A couple of quick answers following Ranger power play goals helped the Predators to a 5-2 victory on Saturday evening, Nashville’s eighth win in 10 games.
P.K. Subban scored 19 seconds into the second period after a scoreless first.
Lots of stuff happened in the second period of the physical variety. Alexei Emelin knocked Marc Staal down with a hard hit into the boards, then Filip Forsberg leveled Jimmy Vesey at the other end a few moments later.
