Wow, what a game! The Ducks convincingly beat the Nashville Predators 6-1 and now have points in four consecutive games.
First Period:
Ritchie kept up his tremendous play and scored the game’s first goal on the power play. Theodore’s heads-up keep in kept the play alive and Sgarbossa delivered the perfect final pass. The opening goal was Pekka Rinne’s first of many mistakes.
Nashville’s most dangerous 5v5 chances came while the defense pairing of Bieksa and Holzer was on the ice. On one such shift, Carlyle put the fourth line out against Nashville’s first.
