NASHVILLE – Several streaks got snapped here Monday night as the Winnipeg Jets suffered a 5-3 setback to the feisty Nashville Predators in NHL action.
Winnipeg's four-game winning streak was abruptly halted by the Predators, while the Jets finally lost to a Central Division opponent after coming in 4-0-0.
Jets right-winger Patrik Laine had registered at least a point in eight straight games but was held off the scoresheet by the Predators, who busted out of a 1-1 tie with three goals in the second period.
Down 5-1 midway through the third period, the Jets closed to within a pair on goals by Mathieu Perreault and Tyler Myers but came up short.
