Nashville Predators 3, Arizona Coyotes 4 (OT): Late Forsberg Goal Not Enough, Predators Eliminated

The stakes for the Nashville Predators this afternoon were simple: win, or go home. Beat the Arizona Coyotes and live to fight another day, or fail to reach the round of 16 in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, which would likely result in the rebuilding—or at the very least reshuffling—of the core that has been together for so long. Coyotes goaltender Darcy Kuemper had a fantastic Game 3, so if the Predators wanted to get their offense going and take this series the distance, the first step would be breaking down Kuemper.
