The Nashville Predators came out on top in a tough battle with the slumping Ottawa Senators tonight, winning the game 6-5 in regulation. Nashville’s goals came from Hamhuis, De Vries, Dumont, Suter, Gelinas and Erat. Ottawa’s goals were scored by Crovo, Vermette, Heatley, Spezza, and Alfredsson.
The high-paced game saw the Predators in the lead nearly the entire game with Ottawa coming back from several one-goal deficits to tie the game. Daniel Alfredsson tied the game at 5 with Martin Gerber out of the net and only 45 seconds remaining only to have Erat score another for Nashville 23 seconds later - the game winner as it turned out.
Ottawa increases its losing streak to 4 games; that means a slowly closing gap between them and the Canadiens in the Northeast Division. If Montreal can capitalize and take 4 points home over the weekend when they battle New Jersey (Friday) and Nashville (Saturday) we could see a new division leader before too long!
