The Nashville Predators are quietly dominating the Blackhawks at their own game: even strength play. Pekka Rinne's goaltending has been outstanding and the entire team is clicking. Dirk Hoag of On The Forecheck is struggling to find negatives:
If I had to pick a negative, I'd say that I wasn't crazy about J.P. Dumont's game. He retaliated on a couple occasions that could have cost the Preds a penalty, and got on the wrong side of pucks that let Chicago maintain possession in the Nashville zone. That said, he did tee that Shea Weber goal up nicely.
Even when criticizing the Preds, he finds something positive about their play. Nashville holds a 2-1 series lead and will meet the Hawks on Thursday at 8:30 in Nashville.
