Wild Game To Start Preds Season

The post-Rick Nash Era in Columbus is off to a good start.
Derick Brassard scored in the sixth round of the shootout Saturday night to give the Blue Jackets a 3-2 victory at Nashville — a place where they had won once in their past 20 visits since the start of the 2006-07 season.
Brassard beat goaltender Pekka Rinne to start the sixth round of the shootout, and Columbus goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky gave the Blue Jackets the extra point when he denied Chris Smith’s attempt, disappointing a sellout crowd of 17,113. The game sold out in three days after tickets were put on sale.
Martin Erat and Martin Erat scored for Nashville.
The Preds play at home Monday at 5pm
