Canucks advance to second round after defeating Nashville, will face Oilers next

Reading Time: < 1 minute

In a thrilling Game 6 showdown, the Vancouver Canucks secured a spot in the second round of the NHL playoffs with a nail-biting 1-0 victory over the Nashville Predators. Pius Suter emerged as the hero of the night, scoring the game-winning goal with just 1:39 left on the clock.

The Predators had a final opportunity to force overtime with a power play in the closing seconds, but rookie goalie Arturs Silovs stood tall and made 28 saves to secure the shutout victory. Silovs joined a select group of rookie goalies in NHL history to finish off a series with a shutout, a feat achieved by only five others in the past 30 years.

The Canucks will now face off against the Edmonton Oilers in the next round, after the Oilers defeated the Los Angeles Kings in their first-round matchup. Vancouver’s victory continued the trend of road teams winning each of the final five games in the series, marking their first playoff series win outside the pandemic bubble since 2011.

On the other hand, the Predators have now lost six straight playoff games on home ice, a disappointing streak for a team once known for their dominance at home. Despite their struggles, Nashville captain Roman Josi and his team put up a valiant effort but ultimately fell short against a determined Canucks squad.

Suter’s clutch goal, combined with Silovs’ stellar performance in net, propelled the Canucks to victory and set the stage for an exciting second-round matchup against the Oilers.
