📰Game Recap

Nashville defeated Carolina 4-1, largely due to efficient scoring and a standout goaltending performance from Juuse Saros. Saros made 29 saves on 30 shots, while Carolina outshot Nashville 30-20. Nick Perbix opened the scoring for Nashville in the first period, taking a pass from Filip Forsberg at 12:32 to give his team a 1-0 lead.

The Predators extended their lead early in the second period when Roman Josi, assisted by Filip Forsberg, scored at 3:29 to make it 2-0. Carolina responded midway through the period, with Jackson Blake netting a goal at 10:28 from Shayne Gostisbehere and Logan Stankoven, cutting Nashville's lead to 2-1.

Nashville regained its two-goal advantage in the third period as Adam Edstrom scored at 5:40, with assists from Roman Josi and Ross Colton. Ross Colton then sealed the victory for Nashville with a goal at 19:20, assisted by Brady Skjei and Jack Drury. The outcome moved Nashville's record to 5-4-5, while Carolina's fell to 12-2-2. The result came despite the SportsFBI model having leaned towards a Carolina victory at 69% probability pregame.
