The Anaheim Ducks are at a crossroads in their Western Conference Final series with the Nashville Predators.
The Ducks lost home-ice advantage when they dropped the series opener, and if they can't find a way to earn a victory in Bridgestone Arena Thursday night, they will return home staring at a 3-1 disadvantage in the series.
Anaheim was close to picking up that road victory in Game 3 Tuesday night, as the Ducks held a 1-0 lead after two periods, but they could not hold that advantage as a result of the relentless pressure brought on by the Preds.
