The Nashville Predators are the NHL's hottest team right now, and they just keep finding ways to win.

Jason Arnott scored a power-play goal at 2:31 of overtime, and the Predators beat Edmonton 6-5 Tuesday night for their season-high fifth straight win - the longest current streak in the league. Nashville has moved from 14th in the Western Conference at the start of February into eighth place with this latest victory.

"Guys have stayed with it and stayed persistent, which we talk about," Nashville coach Barry Trotz said.
