Nashville had a welcome success on Sunday in the NHL. Thanks to a goal and an assist from Roman Josi, who reached the 700-point mark, the Predators dominated the Canucks in Vancouver (5-3).
The Tennessee franchise ended a series of 3 defeats to breathe a little at the start of the year far from satisfying the expectations developed by a promising offseason. Beaten and blanked by the Calgary Flames on Friday (2-0), the “Preds” found a little smile on the other side of the Canadian Rockies.
And this is thanks to Roman Josi, distinguished by the 1st star of the match and one of the main architects of the success of Nashville in British Columbia. In power play, the Bernese defender provided an assist on Steven Stamkos’ 2-2 equalizer (32nd), before offering his colors a decisive advantage 2 minutes later. Zurich Canucks forward Pius Suter remained silent.
