It was certainly not the prettiest of games as the Preds scored one in the 1st, one in the 2nd and then were content to sit back and take opportunities as they came but not to overly press themselves and not to give up chances to the Jets. Patrik Laine did score his third goal of the playoffs with 51 seconds left but it was too little too late as Nashville won the contest 2-1. They basically played a solid road game which saw them even the series 2-2.
