Nashville's Struggle Continues


On the other side of the rink, Nashville Predators found themselves battling not just an opponent in top form but also their inconsistencies. Despite managing to put two past Bobrovsky thanks to powerplay opportunities and even-strength plays, they couldn't capitalize further due to a lackluster offensive showing overall - managing only 18 shots compared to Florida's 34.


The Predators did show resilience in faceoffs winning 59 percent of them and were aggressive in physical play registering 39 hits against Florida’s 21. However, these efforts were overshadowed by their inability to convert plays into points on board effectively.
