Predators' top players 'step up and make it happen' in Game 5 victory at Canucks
The Stanley Cup Playoffs are about a team's best players being the best players at the most important times. Nashville Predators forward Ryan O'Reilly believes that as well, and that's why he and some of his teammates, among them linemates Filip Forsberg and Gustav Nyquist, and No. 1 defenseman Roman Josi, felt pressure to do more in Game 5 of the Western Conference First Round against the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday.

Boeser's hat trick helps Canucks rally, push Preds to brink of elimination
Brock Boeser had the best playoff game of his career at the perfect moment for the Vancouver Canucks. Boeser had his first hat trick in the playoffs, then Elias Lindholm scored 1:02 into overtime as the Canucks stunned Nashville 4-3 on Sunday night grabbing a 3-1 lead to put the Predators on the brink of elimination in their best-of-seven, first-round series. Lindolm beat goalie Juuse Saros over his stick with a wrister from just in front of the crease off a pass from Conor Garland.
