The Nashville Predators defeated the Anaheim Ducks 4-2 on Wednesday, Nov. 11 at the Honda Center, extending their winning streak to six games and snapping Anaheim's five-game run.
Nils Höglander put Nashville ahead with a remarkable between-the-legs goal in the second period, while Shane Wright recorded his first point since being acquired from Seattle on Nov. 1.
Goaltender Justus Annunen made 27 saves to win his fourth consecutive start, while captain Roman Josi earned his 800th NHL point and Steven Stamkos scored his 11th goal.
Predators head coach Andrew Brunette called the victory a "gutsy win," while Josi noted, "They're fast and they create a lot, but we found a way."
Nashville continues its West Coast road trip Friday against the Vegas Golden Knights, with the victory moving the team into second place in the Central Division with 25 points.
