They finished it just how they started it.
Eeli Tolvanen recorded his first career, three-point game, and Calle Jarnkrok tallied the winner in the shootout, as the Nashville Predators came back to defeat the Dallas Stars by a 4-3 final on Sunday night at American Airlines Center. The result gives the Preds a 4-3-1 record to conclude their franchise-record, eight-game road-trip, including wins in three of their last four outings.
Nashville began the trip two weeks ago with an identical final score in Dallas, and after six games in between against the Hurricanes, Lightning and Panthers, the Preds returned to Texas for one more triumph in the shootout, a perfect exclamation to the longest road trip in club history.
