WELCOME!
1:11 into the game and the Avalanche have the lead already. It’s Brock Nelson again! He dekes by Roman Josi and slid the backhand by Juuse Saros. Pure skill!!
This game is tied. Joel Kiviranta got a penalty and Nashville ties the game on the power play. Jonathan Marchessault batted in his own rebound by Scott Wedgewood, who has returned from his minor back injury. Power play goal for the Preds.

Now things aren’t looking so hot. Reid Schaefer wins the puck battle and no one is able to stop him. He walks the puck in from the far right corner and shoots it by Wedgewood. It’s a 2-1 game in favor of the Predators.
Brent Burns is playing well per usual and Josh Manson tried to set up Victor Olofsson for a deflection in front of the net, but his stick got lifted as the puck skipped by the crease.
Cale Makar tripped Michael Bunting and the Predators are going on their second power play of the game.
Avs kill the penalty and Makar came flying out of the box, gained possession of the puck, and tried to go five-hole on Saros. Denied.
Artturi Lehkonen cleans up the garbage and ties up the game at one. He’s on pace for 70 points this year. We’re tied at 2.
