Both the Nashville Predators and the Buffalo Sabres were coming off painful 7-0 losses and hoping to bounce back, but the Preds proved the more resilient team in this case.

Luke Evangelista started the offense with a great defensive steal, some speed and a shot with Tommy Novak trying quickly on the rebound.
Tyson Barrie had some great break-ups, proving his mettle in Josi’s absence.
