The Nashville Predators have reclaimed home-ice advantage.
Riding a fine 32-save effort from goalie Pekka Rinne, the Predators dumped the Winnipeg Jets 2-1 at Bell MTS Place in Game 4 of their best-of-seven, second-round NHL playoff series.
Patrik Laine scored a power-play goal with 49.6 seconds left in the third period to cut the Predators lead in half, but the Jets couldn’t get the equalizer despite having an extra attacker with goalie Connor Hellebuyck on the bench.

The series is knotted 2-2. Game 5 is back in Nashville on Monday night.
Preds’ winger Ryan Hartman opened the scoring in the first period, while defenceman P.K. Subban added a power-play goal in the second.
