NASHVILLE – Just call it the Music City meltdown.
The Winnipeg Jets came completely unglued Thursday night, handing the Nashville Predators eight consecutive power plays before the game was even two periods old, and nine in total, in what turned out to be an eventual 3-0 loss.
Ryan Hartman, Roman Josi and Ryan Johansen scored for the home team – the first two on blatant Winnipeg turnovers – during what seemed like three of the very brief stretches of five-on-five action in the game at Bridgestone Arena.
Nashville improves to 3-1-0, while Winnipeg drops to 2-2-0.
