Nashville, TN (Sports Network) - Alexander Edler scored in the sixth round of
a shootout Tuesday night, lifting the Vancouver Canucks to a 4-3 win over the
Nashville Predators.
Edler challenged Pekka Rinne from the left side, skating deep into the zone
and flipping a shot past his right pad. At the other end, Colin Wilson was
able to slide a shot under Roberto Luongo from the right, but the puck drifted
wide on the far side of the net.
The Canucks beat the Predators for the second time in three games this season,
though Tuesday's game was the first time the teams met in Nashville since last
year's Western Conference semifinals, which Vancouver won in six games.
