San Jose won the first game, 5-2. The Sharks scored five goals in the last 20 minutes after being down 2-0. Joel Ward has been sensational in the playoffs in the past, scoring seven goals in 12 playoff games with Nashville. He had the go-ahead goal in Friday’s win. The Preds should have some more energy in the tank after tiring on Friday. They finally scored on the power play, after going just 1-of-26 against Anaheim in the first round, so that’s a positive.
