Fiddler, Subban star as Preds take Game 1 from Blues
Vernon Fiddler had the perfect touch.
P.K. Subban recorded three points and Fiddler tallied the game-winner with just over five minutes left in regulation, and the Nashville Predators defeated the St. Louis Blues in Game One by a 4-3 final on Wednesday night at Scottrade Center. The win gives the Predators a 1-0 series lead in Round Two and a perfect 5-0 record in these playoffs.
The first postseason meeting between the Predators and the Blues had a little bit of everything, and after St. Louis mounted a third-period comeback, it was a 36-year-old veteran who put Nashville on top.
"They had a little push there, and we got to 3-2 and then 3-3, the building is rocking and you have to give our guys credit," Fiddler said. "We just regrouped and went back at them and found a way to get the win."
