   Nashville opened the scoring - Michael McCarron gave the Predators the 1-0 lead with a one-timer. A dump-in by Roman Josi's shot bounced off the post behind the net and popped out into the slot, and McCarron was able to strike his seventh goal of the season. Philip Tomasino drove towards the net, getting the puck over Mads Sogaard's glove, and gave Nashville the 2-0 lead. Tipping in a shot from the point by Dante Fabbro, Yakov Trenin got his first goal in 17 games with a minute left and the Predators lead 3-0.

Batherson took a cross-crease pass coming from Brady Tkachuk and tucked the puck around Juuse Saros' left pad. Mathieu Joseph passed the puck to Tim Stutzle on the rush and beat Saros' glove side with a great wrist shot. After winning a puck battle off the face-off with 2:50 remaining in the middle frame, Brady Tkachuk gets one past Saros with a snap shot high blocker and ties it 3-3.
