NASHVILLE — It was a prize fight between a pair of hockey heavyweights, with each absorbing plenty of blows while dishing out some damage of their own.

Fittingly, this one went the distance and then some, but it was the Nashville Predators who were left standing Sunday night after a thrilling 5-4 double overtime victory at Bridgestone Arena.

Kevin Fiala scored the winner 5:37 into the fifth period to give his team a split on home ice following Winnipeg's 4-1 victory Friday.
