Roman Josi scores in OT, Predators rally to beat Coyotes 3-2
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Roman Josi scored 20 seconds into overtime, and the Nashville Predators rallied from a 2-0 deficit in the third period to beat the Arizona Coyotes 3-2 on Thursday night in their home finale.
The Predators trailed 2-0 with Arizona goalie Mike Smith making save after save until Connor Murphy went to the penalty box for elbowing at 7:13 of the third.
Nashville needed only 13 seconds before captain Shea Weber scored his 20th goal this season from the left circle, and Filip Forsberg tied the franchise-record with his 33rd goal with 18.3 seconds left to force overtime. The puck had barely dropped when Josi scored quickly with a wrister past Smith.
Antoine Vermette and Shane Doan scored for Arizona. The Coyotes have lost three straight overall and 15 of their last 17 on the road.
