The Nashville Predators returned home, hoping to rebound from a rough last-minute loss to the Philadelphia Flyers against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Preds got out to a strong start, getting some great chances early and mostly limiting the quality of the Leafs’ return attempts. Matt Duchene set Filip Forsberg up for a great chance, but Forsberg wasn’t able to convert.
Instead, about fourteen minutes in, Tanner Jeannot picked up a pass from Colton Sissons and put his 21st of the season past Leafs goalie Erik Kallgren to put the Preds up 1-0.
