Preds finally solve Golden Knights in 1-0 victory

In their third and final meeting of the regular season, the Nashville Predators finally defeated the Vegas Golden Knights. The 1-0 victory was the third shutout of the season for goaltender Juuse Saros, and he’s only started 11 games. Nashville had multiple opportunities before Kevin Fiala finally put one past Marc-Andre Fleury. The Predators were outshot 43-27, but had multiple, quality chances. It was yet another game that had a playoff-like feel to the game and atmosphere. The next time these two teams could meet would make for a very interesting Western Conference Final.
