The Preds went on the road, still looking to build off their recent wins at home. The crowd in St Louis honored Ryan O’Reilly at the start of the game, and we were off.
Nashville opened up the scoring when Filip Forsberg tapped a Jeremy Lauzon shot past Joel Hofer at 6:57. Almost right after, Colton Sissons, Yakov Trenin, and Liam Foudy made a great rush play that ended in a Trenin goal. However, Ryan McDonagh then took a tripping penalty, heading to the sin bin and giving the Blues a chance on the power play.
The Preds killed the penalty off and went back on the attack, pressuring hard.
