The Nashville Predators had a chance as golden as their uniforms to tie Game 4 with a 5-on-3 power play. They did not.
It turns out that didn’t really matter.
The Anaheim Ducks nearly survived Nashville’s onslaught to tie things up in the third period, until a very odd moment.
The puck went high but not out, to the surprise of more than a few players. During a zany exchange, Ryan Johansen took out Josh Manson and Filip Forsberg managed to score another clutch goal, sending Game 4 to overtime.
