Nashville Predators 3, Toronto Maple Leafs 0: Preds Shut Out Leafs for the Second Time in 2019
The Wayne Train has arrived, and Pekka Rinne notches another shutout. In a clash between a struggling Eastern Conference opponent and the second-place (in the Central) Predators, many were expecting a massive battle. Coming off an awful week, the Leafs were definitely looking to get back to their style of play tonight. Nashville went on an early power play, but the special teams unit was unable to convert with an extra man. Brian Boyle whipped a wicked wrist shot past Toronto goaltender Frederick Andersen for Nashville’s first goal a few minutes later. Toronto’s first power play came...

Nashville Predators vs. Anaheim Ducks Preview: Preds Fly Together
The west coast road trip begins in Anaheim tonight. Road trip time. Nashville Predators Well, practice for the Predators was a snappy and upbeat affair on Monday. Viktor Arvidsson was missing from practice, but the team has made no announcements about an injury. I’d expect him to play unless we see something from the team today. The Predators are a known quantity to us OTFers by now. The 30th-best power play has seen a bit of new life recently thanks to Brian Boyle, but the Predators have been maddeningly inconsistent over their last several games. It’s now or never if the Predators...

Nashville Predators The Predators will probably ice a familiar lineup tonight. While Brian Boyle was out with a lower-body injury on Sunday, we don’t have any news yet on his status for tonight. Expect Mikael Granlund and Wayne Simmonds to slot in again tonight. Granlund looked very comfortable with Kyle Turris and Calle...

Nashville Predators 3, Edmonton Oilers 2 (SO): Boyle’s Shootout Goal Secures Win Over Edmonton
Leon Draisaitl tied the game in the third period to force OT. Filip Forsberg and Brian Boyle scored in the shootout for Nashville. On a relatively busy trade deadline day, the Predators faced the Edmonton Oilers in a Central Division vs. Pacific Division tilt. After an adorable ceremonial puck-drop courtesy of Isaiah Fisher, son of retired captain Mike Fisher, the Preds were off to the races with a modified lineup. The boys in gold went on the first power play of the evening. A poor pass at the blue line by Filip Forsberg resulted in a shorthanded goal from Leon Draisaitl. Both Viktor...
