Chris MacFarland saw countless championship moments growing up outside NYC. The 70's Yankees, the 1980 miracle on ice, the Islanders dynasty, the '94 Rangers... Now he's ready to bring one to Nashville. My exclusive profile on the Predators' new GM: tennessean.com/story/sports/…

And Ryan O'Reilly played 4:27 of that period (and blocked two of Schaefer's shot attempts).

Here's the tripping call on Filip Forsberg that doomed the Predators' OT chances.

The Predators will not practice tomorrow.

Walking back to my car, I heard someone describe the shootout loss as them “losing in the overtime of the overtime” and I just think that’s perfect.

MacFarland was bustling down in the tunnel. Didn’t look happy.

Fun game, really. Let's do that overtime.

Daemon Hunt has his first assist with Nashville.

Ryan O'Reilly puts home the garbage and we are tied 3-3.

Kerfoot finishes off a flurry in front and suddenly its 3-2. Predators back in this.

Filip Forsberg gets Nashville on the board. 3-1

Halfway through the 2nd period: Islanders: 3 Predators: 7 (shots on goal)

Lots of shenanigans and goings on out there tonight. Already 4 penalties called.

Good work from the top line to get some momentum back. Stamkos and ROR winning pucks down low.

Predators lines against the Islanders tonight: Stamkos O'Reilly Schaefer Forsberg Kerfoot Bourque Hoglander Wood Marchessault Colton Drury Edstrom Josi Wilsby Hague Struble Skjei Perbix Hunt (Schaefer is likely the scratch)

Can the Preds do the unthinkable… a winning streak? Talking now.
