NASHVILLE, Tenn — It would have been easy for the Nashville Predators to get frustrated Tuesday night.
They were taking two shots for every one attempted by the Anaheim Ducks, but between the great play of goalie John Gibson and their inability to bury chances, the Predators entered the third period 20 minutes from trailing 2-1 in the Western Conference Final.
Instead, Nashville rallied for goals by Filip Forsberg and Roman Josi to earn a 2-1 win that gave it the upper hand in the series. Now, it has an opportunity to push the Ducks to the brink of elimination in Thursday’s Game 4 at what will be an insanely loud Bridgestone Arena.
