01:01avoids the poke kick and maintains possession
01:05takes a shot a simple stop with the glove by ellis
01:09lozano's been showing some frustration you know when you want to contribute as an athlete especially
01:15when you have a strong skill set and then you're in a pointless streak man the frustration grows and
01:19it builds and you start to squeeze the tech tight
01:24brass won it off the face off
01:27braggled on the board by lozano
01:32the predators in control of the puck against the wall
01:36parents picking up steam
01:40icing is the call we'll get a face off at the other end
01:48still plenty of time left in this frame still looking for our first goal
01:54the predators win the face off
01:58summer wins that one clean everyone's ready for the puck they know they're attacking now with a tired group that they're playing against
02:04national stock possession here in the offensive zone
02:08ellis hangs on to the puck to stop the play
02:11bragg is finding a way to limp himself back to the bench here and finish his shift but man it's been a tough one
02:21he got injured somewhere in the midst of it showing a lot of heart and passion here as he's committed to staying on the ice for his team
02:28stay that's gained possession and his great work inside the face off circle pays off again
02:43and now it's grabbed by D'Angelo
02:54cuts it across the blue line
02:56and that goes off the player
02:58jostling for the puck and he loses control
03:01and he handles the cross ice packs
03:04moves it quickly over to Neifest
03:07hits it along the wall by Beren
03:10quick feed to Stamkos
03:12oh he's cooking now
03:14puck picked up by D'Angelo

03:40quick pass to Pahal
03:42always stays out
03:44he's got a piece of that one
03:45Anderson's got great rebound control
03:48and just pushes that out of hand's way
03:50and this is a great play by the tenders
03:55you anticipate and get across
03:57to make that save
03:58moves the puck down low
04:01now that's a great heads up
04:04of the defensive zone
04:05before it's the turnover
04:06Nashville's got it against the boards
04:09the Bears get a hold of the puck
04:11in the open ice
04:12back to the blue line
04:19feeds it over
04:20picked up along the boards by Carrick
04:23let's see what the officials are calling
04:29Bastion's getting two for interference here
04:34he's off to the box
04:35running interference is part of the game
04:37but guess what
04:38you've got to be smart about it
04:39you have to allow your opponent
04:41to move freely to find that puck
04:43and get in the way a little bit
04:44but too much
04:45you're going to get the interference call
04:47Nashville's bad advantage unit
04:50will take to the ice for the first time tonight
04:52with a scoreless game James
04:54an opportunity to go up by one
04:56they want to gain possession
04:57right off the jaw in September
04:59gets it over to Stenland
05:01grabs the puck and moves on out here
05:08at this man advantage
05:09taken by Stamkos
05:11great use of the stick
05:15at the defensive end by Pahal
05:17oh and just like that
05:19steals the puck
05:20he can go the other way
05:21answered the call there
05:23takes the feed at the board
05:25oh how about that for sacrifice
05:28well on a PK you have to sacrifice
05:30and I love the way that he gets out there aggressively
05:32and make sure that that shot does not get to the net
05:34slides the puck across to Stamkos
05:37picked up by Kroc
05:40carries it into the offensive end up the middle
05:46feeds it to the middle
05:48here he is
05:52here he is
05:52stop by the goaltender
05:55gets it out of his own end
05:58the Predators gain possession along the wall
06:03here's a short pass to O'Brien
06:08oh that kick save tremendous athleticism on the play
06:12hope everyone's enjoying the game here tonight
06:19another big face off here on this power play
06:22O'Reilly's won a big draw on their own end
06:30watch it into the offensive zone
06:35the Predators have it behind the cage
06:38St. Petersburg's got a hold of the puck now
06:41moves it quickly over to Struble
06:44watch him in front
06:46that's broken up
06:47quick feed to Lozak
06:50redirected off one of his own line mates there
06:53along the right side into the offensive zone
06:58passes it over to Ben
07:01Bastion's almost ready to get up on the ice
07:05the Predators fire blanks on the power play
07:09we're back to even strength here
07:11power play have the opportunity to really dictate pace
07:15and change the momentum of the game
07:17and this one didn't do any of it James
07:20certainly frustrated as they head back to the bench
07:22inching closer to the midway mark of the period
07:25the game is still scoreless
07:28slides the puck over
07:32and he slides it quickly to Bastion
07:35here's a pass down low
07:37takes the pass and works the cycle down low
07:41great use of the body to knock him off the puck
07:47the Bears look to start the transition game
07:50losing to Cartier
07:52takes the pass
07:57the Bears look around near the point
08:00penalty coming up as the play's blown dead
08:03Terrick's going to serve a pair for interference
08:08well that's going to be an interference call
08:10and it's a deserved one
08:11you can't impede the forward progress of your opponent
08:14the Predators once again send out their power play unit
08:27James I think this is a critical moment in the game
08:29we've had multiple opportunities on the power play
08:31haven't been able to convert
08:32now you get another one
08:33the coach is going to have to consider deploying different personnel
08:36if they don't get it done
08:37and he's going to leave the net to play the puck here
08:40from their own end
08:42trying to kickstart this power play
08:44quick feed down low
08:47unable to reach that one
08:50feeds the puck to Stamkos
08:52Nationals got it across the line
08:55trying to get the puck out of his own end
09:00and manages to clear the zone
09:03the Predators get a hold of the puck along the boards
09:07there's the whistle as the puck is frozen up
09:15power play set to roll on
09:21as the setters get ready for the faceoff
09:23Nationals got it and they're on the attack
09:30and the attendee steps out to play it
09:35tries to get this man advantage going from their own end now
09:40handles the pass
09:42oh here's the pass
09:45pass in front
09:46and that's stopped
09:48and the puck stopper jumps on top of it
09:51to get a stoppage in play
09:52O'Brien's gliding in for the faceoff
09:57as this penalty kill will continue
09:59O'Reilly's won the faceoff here in the offensive zone
10:04here's a pad save as he kicks it away
10:07O'Reilly's had the faceoff job ready to win this draw on the man advantage
10:17puck is dropped and he wins the draw there in the defensive zone
10:22and they get some breathing room as the puck leaves the defensive end
10:30Nashville's got a hold of it along the wall
10:44slides a diagonal leap to knife fist
10:49oh he strikes up what they'd love to stop that one
10:54I'll tell you what James that ain't incidental contact
11:01that was intentional
11:02certainly trying to really drive that body
11:05and separate the player from puck
11:06special teams so important can they capitalize on this power play here with a faceoff
11:22stand post
11:26stand post wins the offensive zone faceoff and here we go
11:30here inside the defensive zone
11:32they get the puck
11:33it's almost back on the ice
11:36Nelstra's got the puck along the boards
11:39St. Petersburg's PK unit
11:41gets their man out of the box
11:43James the PK was a specialty team
11:45that I actually played on
11:47and they're good aggressive habits there and it leads to the kill
11:50puck sent down the ice
11:52we'll get an icing
11:53well past the midway mark of this period
11:58we've still got zeros on the board
12:01St. Petersburg's won the faceoff deep in their own end
12:09and he takes the dish
12:12slides the puck down low
12:14St. Petersburg's trying to make something happen in the offensive zone
12:20point cover
12:22denotes him
12:23he got all
12:24he looks deep for Marcioso
12:26can't keep a hold of it as he's jostled off the puck
12:29and that plays offside
12:31we've got a faceoff coming up
12:32some last second communication with the D
12:36as centers get ready to drop the puck
12:38and they've got the puck
12:43got for that neutral zone faceoff
12:45quick feed down low
12:48oh just a great heads up play by O'Reilly
12:52and he takes the feed
12:55they've got the defense outnumbered
12:57and he makes the save
12:59goaltender covers it up
13:01and we'll get a reset here
13:02getting into the later stages of this period
13:08we're still scoreless
13:10St. Petersburg's won the draw
13:18from the defensive zone
13:21they move the puck around
13:22quick pass to Barron
13:24puck grabbed by Lazard
13:26here's a short pass to Burrows
13:30the Predators scooping up along the boards
13:33moves it quickly over to Lazard
13:36and he takes the feed
13:39and that carries right off the mask
13:41this is an incredible athletic save
13:44but this is all instant
13:45there's no time to put yourself to position
13:48you just react
13:48and if you get there you get there
13:50what a great job
13:51there's the whistle
13:52as the puck goes out of play
13:54fast chins one possession
14:05nice zone entry on the left side
14:08the Bears have it now
14:14quick feed to Kertzian
14:15and that's a great heads up play
14:18by St. Petersburg's got the puck
14:25Tucker's got the puck
14:27in his own zone
14:28moves it to Kertzian
14:30Nashville's got control of the puck
14:34and now he tries to get it across to Wood
14:36tries it to the place
14:39a score
14:40and a smash
14:42and a smash
14:42I love the way they were able to execute
14:48on this odd man rush
14:49James really used the ice to their advantage
14:51manipulating their opponent
14:52the ice that they did have
14:53and then they were able to capitalize
14:55when the shot came their way
14:56Nationals taking the 1-0 lead here
15:11late in this first period
15:13well anytime a goal is for James
15:15it's a momentum builder for their team
15:16and you know what
15:17at the end of a period
15:19it creates even more energy
15:20you've got the body language
15:22you've got the energy
15:22hitting the dressing room
15:23and you get set to start the second
15:25now you've got all that positive
15:26pent-up energy
15:27and you look to start the second
15:28the same way you ended the first
15:30and that shot goes nowhere
15:32as the lane was killed
15:33comes up with a stop
15:35coaltender hangs on for the whistle
15:38Nashville's been the better team
15:44here in this first period
15:45more shots and more goals
15:46just a better all-around execution
15:48St. Petersburg's won the draw
15:51now let's see what they can do with it
15:52now a quick pass to Kapanen
15:56and he takes the pass

20:40Ellis giving his team a chance here
20:42to get the W
20:43and the only reason why it's close
20:44is because of him
20:45you know the way he's been dialed in
20:47right from puck drop
20:48cutting down his angles
20:49and redirecting rebounds
20:50he's been just awesome
20:51shot and he gets all on that one as he was teed up with the slapper
20:57but he turns it aside
20:59lots of time left in this period
21:04we've got a 1-0 hockey game thus far
21:06Favre's quick stick off the draw wins possession
21:12dragged along the board by Smith
21:15the creditors have it against the wall
21:21here's a short pass to Forsberg

21:38beautiful read in the defensive end by Purbex
21:41tosses it off the puck after that hit

22:33Woods taking it from his own end
22:36moves it to D'Angelo
22:38here's a beat in front
22:41and he elects not to shoot
22:43him and hang out of the puck
22:44Anderson's going to hang on
22:46for the whistle here
22:47it's been a ho-hum night for him
22:49well it really has
22:50he hasn't been gestured
22:51but it is a close game
22:52and he's got to come up big
22:53he has to stay dialed in
22:54and focused in this one
22:55the Predators lead here
22:57in this second period
22:58and they have been the more active team
23:00offensively
23:01St. Petersburg
23:04staying possession along the boards
23:06Stenland's carrying it ahead
23:08oh they telegraphed the pass
23:17and he picks it off
23:18denied by the boytanger
23:22quick pass to Stenland
23:24from the left side
23:26they enter the attacking zone
23:28just a little too much contact
23:32and couldn't hang on to the puck
23:33no
23:33scores
23:34I got two words for you
23:37new game
23:39yeah certainly is James
23:42and who's going to come out on top
23:43by the beginning of this faceoff
23:45you want to be able to get that puck
23:46in the offensive zone
23:47and find a way to continue to attack
23:50great patience by the shooter
23:52as the goaltender drops into the butterfly
23:54but doesn't go glove hand
23:56instead goes walker side
23:57stick side high
23:58what a finish
23:59nearing the midway mark of the period
24:10you can feel the energy in this crowd
24:13it's a tie game
24:15St. Petersburg's got the puck here
24:18on the open ice
24:19the Predators cross the line
24:47and gain the zone
24:49takes it to the net
24:50scores
24:51going on target
24:54yeah that's unbelievable
24:55James has shot
24:57goes stop cheese
24:58and just knocks the bottle
25:00off the top of the net
25:01it bottle pops
25:02man does he ever make it look easy
25:05the way he separates himself
25:07from the coverage
25:07I mean look at the explosiveness
25:09when he just takes off
25:10that's quickness
25:11speed is a different thing
25:13all of a sudden he's able
25:14to get on track
25:15feed everyone
25:15and take it to the net
25:17I mean this guy's got some wheels
25:18Nashville's got a 5-1 here in the second period
25:29it's been a lot of hard work
25:31and heavy lifting to get to this point
25:32just to get that one goal lead James
25:34not only do they want to hold on to it
25:36they want to extend it now
25:37here's a shot
25:39and the goaltender comes up
25:40but a piece of it
25:41to keep it out of the net
25:42handles the puck
25:45St. Petersburg's on the attack
25:49oh tremendous
25:50so will the play
25:52what an incredible save
25:53no idea how he got to that one
25:55James and the shooter
25:56is absolutely stunned
25:58what a stop
25:59the Bears working around
26:01near the back end
26:02and that slides right out
26:04to center ice
26:05goalie leaves the net
26:07to play the puck
26:08and he slides it quickly
26:10to O'Brien
26:11St. Petersburg's got the puck
26:15along the wall
26:15Nashville's got a hold
26:18of the puck now
26:19and now it's grabbed by Perrin
26:22here's an opportunity
26:28to get the puck
26:29out of their own end
26:30and that's blocked
26:31and kept in
26:32now this is really frustrating
26:34instead of getting it out
26:35you wind up back in your zone
26:36into coverage
26:37it's a good way
26:38to get on your heels
26:39and find it in the back of your net
26:40here's a short pass
26:43to Pallott
26:43and now he moves it
26:45quickly to Kapanen
26:46handles the puck at the point
26:51moves it quickly
26:52over to Kapanen
26:53and that carries
26:54Alpapati in traffic
26:56Anderson's last save
26:57was so impressive
26:58James
26:59really a last ditch
27:00effort to find the puck
27:01when you out-battle
27:02when you out-wheel
27:03your opponent
27:03everyone around you
27:04gets energized
27:05just look at the bench
27:06everyone is elevated
27:07because of that save
27:08tries to feed it
27:10over to Nitesis
27:11to Nitesis
27:12on the slobber
27:13ref blows the whistle
27:15as the puck's covered up
27:16it is remarkable

31:27Anderson's been dialed in
31:29right from puck drop
31:30James
31:31I mean he's made
31:31the key saves
31:32that he's need to make

32:07to give them the lead
32:08and also the confidence
32:09that they've shown
32:10these past few shifts
32:11led to that opportunity
32:12when we have a look
32:15at it James
32:15it looks like
32:16it's redirected
32:17and that's just
32:18beautiful timing

32:58eight
32:59seconds
36:59The final frame of regulation has arrived.
37:02It's period number three, and it's about to go down.
37:06And they have dropped the puck here in the final frame.
37:09Two-thirds of the way to the finish line in this one for regulation time.
37:14Cheryl, how do you view it?
37:15The Predators are behind in this game.
37:16The Predators are behind in this game.
37:17They haven't been on the puck.
37:18They haven't had their legs under them.
37:20They haven't been urgent, which means they've been chasing the game.
37:22The Bears get a hold of the puck in their own end.
37:26The Predators scoop it up along the boards.
37:28There's a shot.
37:29There's a shot.
37:30There's a shot.
37:30There's a shot.
37:30There's a shot.
37:31Stops that one.
37:38Nashville's got the puck along the boards.
37:40Yossi's got it along the wing
37:43Grabs the puck in the corner
37:46Puts it on the left
37:47And that one's turned away
37:49Takes the puck behind the net
37:51One of his teammates is right in the shooting lane there
37:55The Bears run in
37:57Here's a chance
37:59Simple stop by Anderson
38:01I would have lost the puck three times by the time
38:03I could handle it like that by the coverage
38:05I mean, but he does it
38:06He just knows how to move and maneuver his body
38:09Around the puck
38:10He can shield it
38:11And he maintains possession for a great shot on that
38:13Tries to get the puck to Evangelista
38:17The Predators carry it along the wall
38:20Oh, a good textbook hit there
38:22Across the line along the left wall
38:26Slides it across
38:28Moves the puck
38:31Slides it back to the blue line
38:36And that shot gets blocked by one of his own teammates
38:40St. Petersburg's got the puck along the wall
38:44Oh, what a blocker stopped by Anderson
38:47They've really got him on their heels here now
38:50And they go the other way as they clear the zone
39:04Pass stolen in the open ice
39:06Puck picked up by Stenland
39:08Picked up along the boards by Palat
39:14Sends the pass over
39:18And then it got cut up in traffic and goes off the stick
39:21Woods stick breaks and he logs it back to the bench
39:26And gets a new one
39:27Wow, he gets back and he plays quickly
39:28And he's got the answer for that one
39:31Taken by Kapanen
39:33Slides the puck to Stenland
39:35And he slides it quickly to Palat
39:38Ellis is definitely tracking the play tonight here, James
39:58Just looks like he's seeing everything
40:00And when he sees it, he's able to direct it to safety
40:03I just like the way he's playing
40:04He's confident between the pipes
40:06And what that does is it gives confidence to his entire team ahead of him
40:09Still a lot of time left in the period as we approach the midway mark
40:243-2 is where we're sitting
40:26And they take control of the puck here in the neutral zone
40:30The Predators will play from the corner
40:36And it's knocked off the puck there
40:38Good hook to knock the puck loose
40:42The Bears take it along the wall
40:45And that's off a stick
40:48The Bears get a hold of the puck along the boards
40:51Here's the chance
40:52And there's the save on the play
40:54Anderson's able to put that puck to the corner
40:58And it really keeps the puck out of harm's way
41:00No second shot opportunity
41:01Shot!
41:06Dead by Bailas
41:07St. Petersburg's got the puck
41:09Slides the puck over
41:11Bailas looks around
41:17Quick feed to Lozog
41:20Oh look at this
41:23And that's broken up with a stick in front
41:26On the attack along the boards
41:29And here's a shot
41:32I think that was deflected in front
41:35This is a fantastic save James
41:37He's all over it
41:38What I mean by that is
41:39He knows exactly where it is
41:41And where it's moving
41:41A reason why he can get square to it
41:43And make the save
41:43Loses his check
41:44He's on the breakaway
41:45Passes it over
41:46A fantastic save there
41:49And when he got in on his own James
41:51I thought it was over
41:52And no question thought
41:52It was going to be the back of the net
41:54But the goaltender makes a fantastic save
41:56More than half the period has expired
41:59Just one goal separating these two teams
42:02As we sit with a 3-2 lead
42:04Snigs by the puck check
42:06Draws along the boards by Forster
42:12Oh!
42:13It just gets a piece of it
42:15The shot's coming from the middle of the ice
42:17And the hit has some heat on it
42:18But he's ready and waiting for it
42:20He's to position
42:21And he makes the save
42:22Centers glide into the dot
42:24As the face off
42:25Ready to resume play
42:26Can they take advantage
42:31After winning that draw
42:32Score!
42:33Score!
42:33Score!
42:34Score!
42:34Score!
42:35Score!
42:36You can finish it
42:37In the rebound
42:37Score!
42:43Well that call just ignites a fire
42:45Down the entire bunching
42:46And sometimes it's about the drive
42:48And the energy within the ship
42:49That can just change the course
42:50Of the entire game
42:51There's so many ebbs and flows
42:53Momentum shifts
42:54This one is one of them
42:55I always find it so interesting, James, and how the game shifts throughout it, and at the end of the game, finally, there's a sense of urgency, and because of it, they're able to capitalize on the scoring chance.
43:22And tries to make a diagonal pass to Martial Snow.
43:26Loves to set up at the point here.
43:28Score!
43:29It's got goal on him.
43:31Goal, it's to the front.
43:32Well, and this has been threatening to happen, James.
43:35It's been closing on the front.
43:36We've sent an upward trajectory as his game's progressed, and they find the back of the net.
43:42You've got to love the way the play stays alive on his stick here, James.
43:45And it's a drive.
43:46It's a willingness.
43:46It's almost as if in this shift, you knew that he was going to attack, and he attacks this guy.
43:52Once he gains it by winning the loose-pot battle, and it results in his score.
44:01The Predators have found the go-ahead goal here in the back half of the third period.
44:06This is exactly where they want to be, James.
44:08Late in the third period, you have the lead.
44:10Now you have the momentum, and you certainly want to attack, but you want to make sure that you're in good defensive posture when the puck transitions.
44:16Here's a pass to the middle, and that doesn't connect.
44:25Picked up along the wall by Draft.
44:27Here's the shot.
44:29Oh, that goes off the pass, and it stays out.
44:32Oh, you can see him shaking his head a little bit.
44:34He gets rattled his belt rolling on that shot.
44:36Good pick to bump him off the puck.
44:41Nashville's got a hold of it along the wall.
44:43Dishes it off.
44:45Turned aside with the glove by Ellis.
44:51Forsberg's been bringing all of his skills tonight, and he's finally going to connect for a goal here after having multiple opportunities.
44:58You knew he was going to find it at some point here, James, because he was in and around the net, creating space and opportunity for himself and his linemates.
45:15The Predators continue to lead here in the third, listening to their coach's message.
45:20Lots of pucks on net.
45:21And they win the defensive zone face-off.
45:29Now a quick pass to pull up.
45:33And the puck departs the zone.
45:36Quick pass to pull up.
45:43From the boards, he takes that pass.
45:46Feeds it over.
45:48Oh, it gives up the body as he lays out.
45:51What a selfless play.
45:54This is my kind of play, James.
45:55You've got to get in the shot.
45:56He's late in the third period.
45:57You're trying to preserve the lead.
45:59And what it does just ignites everyone on the bench.
46:01That's a huge play.
46:03Forces the turnover.
46:05Quick pass across to Forsberg.
46:08Steps into the offensive end.
46:11Nashville's top trio continues to impress James.
46:13They've had a lot of motion in the offensive zone.
46:16They're having a ton of fun showing that chemistry.
46:18A lot of zip.
46:19They've been productive, a reason why they're on top.
46:21And that's deflected.
46:24The Predators have it against the wall.
46:27Direct it over to Evangelista.
46:30Here they come on the attack.
46:32And not much on that one.
46:34Cup grab by Evangelista.
46:37Net knocked off.
46:37It's more into their faceoff.
46:40O'Reilly's been playing unbelievable.
46:42And in such a ton of confidence, he's on this point-streak run.
46:45And anytime the coach looks down the bench and they need offense, they're going to him.
46:48Why wouldn't they?
46:49The Predators win the faceoff.
46:52Nowhere for that shot to go through.
46:55Here's a chance.
46:56Stops in front of it for the block.
47:00Musica burns.
47:01Nashville's looking to break out at their own end.
47:08The Bears gain possession along the wall.
47:11Feeds it down low.
47:12Taken along the wall by Fabry.
47:15Quick pass to Barron.
47:16Here's a shot.
47:19Blocked in traffic.
47:21Nashville's gained possession.
47:23Ben's lugging the puck.
47:25The Predators gain the zone.
47:28The Bears gain possession in their own end.
47:31Through center.
47:35Puck scooped up by Yossi.
47:38Nashville's got it in their own zone.
47:41Strong defensive effort.
47:43Knocks the puck loose after a solid hit to his teammate.
47:52And that's offside stopping the play.
47:59The Predators haven't stopped putting pucks on net and they lead it here late in the third.
48:08And play reserves as the puck is dropped.
48:13Passes out front.
48:16What a chance but they can't connect.
48:18Here's the pass in front.
48:20And he shuts down a great scoring chance there.
48:23Here's a howitzer up in net.
48:26That's off a stick.
48:27Here's a short pass to O'Reilly.
48:31Under a match into the other third.
48:33And there's a save.
48:35Great heads up play in the defensive zone.
48:38The Predators are in a tight game.
48:40They've got to start making good on all of those interceptions where they've been great spots and finding ways to get the puck.
48:46They're doing a great job defensively, but they've got to convert.
48:49Here they come.
48:50Down the left side on the attack.
48:53Cartier's got the puck.
48:58Moves it quickly over to Orbein Cabell.
49:01Off a stick.
49:02Too much congestion blocks the shot.
49:06Slides it across.
49:09There we go.
49:10They've really worked with the intensity here now in the Ozone.
49:16Here is it.
49:17Passes it to O'Reilly Cabell.
49:20Scores!
49:20And we are tied just before time runs out.
49:26I can't believe it, James.
49:27Just when you think it's over, they show how urgent they can be around the puck.
49:31They put their opponent on their heels and they got the equalizer.
49:34How about those fans that already left?
49:37Wow, how are they feeling?
49:38Not so good now.
49:39Teams are ready to go, and we're about moments away from puck drop.
50:02And after the draw in center, they've got a hold of the puck.
50:05We've got a delayed penalty coming up here as the ref's hand goes up in the air.
50:10Takes the shot.
50:12And the officials will pass the sevens here.
50:15Orbein Cabell is getting two for tripping.
50:18And the bench may not like it, James, but they can't control it.
50:20They just got to get out there, and they've got to find a way to kill this off.
50:24Late in the third period, tie game is all on the line.
50:39There's the horn, and regulation concludes.
50:47We are off to overtime.
50:50Both teams will get set to drop the puck and try to pick a winner next.
50:54If you'd like to watch some of our fighters, don't forget to go to our website and check out our next charity event.
51:31You'll love these moments of drama if you're a sports fan, and overtime is set to get underway.
51:48Nashville's won the opening faceoff as their power play continues.
51:55Outside the call.
51:56We'll get a faceoff coming up.
52:02Graff's ready for the draws.
52:03They will continue to try to kill off this penalty.
52:05St. Petersburg's won the draw, and they take possession here in the open ice.
52:15Oh, got a little sliver on it, and it stays out.
52:19He does a great job of having sound positional play based on where the puck is on that low inner slot.
52:23And he makes himself big, takes away the holes, and makes a save.
52:26Retrieves the puck, tries to kickstart this power play.
52:35Makes a save.
52:37Bangy with that one.
52:44Stamkos will look to win the draw to continue this power play.
52:47St. Petersburg's got it in the defensive zone.
52:56And they get the puck out of harm's way.
52:59And he sidesteps the check there.
53:01For the win!
53:02And he defies him with a monstrous save here in overtime.
53:07And we're going to get a faceoff after the offside.
53:14Stenlund's gliding in for the faceoff as this penalty kill will continue.
53:22St. Petersburg's won the faceoff at center.
53:25And manages to clear the zone.
53:28And a tenacious effort pays off as he comes up with it.
53:31Quick feed to O'Reilly.
53:40And now it's grabbed by Ben.
53:42There's the whistle.
53:43We've got it offside.
53:48O'Reilly's ready to take the draw here on this power play.
53:57Nashville's got a hold of the puck off the draw.
53:59Huge steal in his own end.
54:02And the puck clears the zone.
54:06Nashville's got a hold of the puck now.
54:09Feeds the puck over to Ben.
54:12Couldn't catch up to that pass.
54:14And there's the whistle icing the call.
54:16Carrick's side still shorthanded here as they slide in for the faceoff.
54:29O'Reilly's won the draw here in their own zone.
54:33Oh, and some smooth skating to lose the defender there.
54:35Passes it over.
54:37Oh, and he somehow got a little piece of it.
54:42And it stays out of the net.
54:46Nashville's gained possession along the boards.
54:49And now it's over to Ben.
54:52To the front.
54:53St. Petersburg's got a chance to work the transition game now shorthanded.
54:57Nashville's got a hold of it against the wall.
55:05The Bears take possession here in the open ice.
55:10Moves the puck along the half wall.
55:14Picked up along the boards by Tucker.
55:17A shot stopped by the goaltender.
55:20Looking to make something happen along the boards.
55:22And he slides it quickly to open to the wall.
55:26And that shot gets caught in traffic.
55:28St. Petersburg's got possession of the puck.
55:31Gets moved to the middle.
55:33Oh, he comes up with a stop.
55:35We're going to face off after the puck stays coming up.
55:42A big draw looming here in the offensive zone.
55:45Let's go, guys!
55:46And they win the offensive zone faceoff now.
55:53Let's see if they can capitalize.
55:55Stop that one.
55:57The Predators played along the boards.
56:01Here's an off-man rush.
56:03Look at how it did.
56:05Score!
56:05They win! They win! They win!
56:08They win!
56:19Ha! Don't just listen to this place buzzing!
56:27Many times you have numbers off of the rush, you typically have speed, as indicated right here, James.
56:32You try to create two-on-ones, you up-neck drive, you got it all, and you bury it.
56:49And here they come back out to salute the fans.
56:52This is a great feeling. I remember doing this when I was an athlete.
56:55You come back on the ice to salute the fans for cheering you on throughout the game.
57:00Just a fun night all the way around.
