The Nashville Predators overcame a four-goal deficit in the second period to beat the San Jose Sharks 7-5 on Tuesday at Bridgestone Arena.

The Sharks had a 5-1 lead with 16:32 left in the second period. Nashville then came all the way back and won the game for their fourth straight. Prior to tonight, Nashville had never come back to win a regular season game after being down four goals.

Team captain Roman Josi tied the game on a crushing, power-play slapshot with 14:37 left in the third period, defenseman Nick Blankenburg gave the Preds their first lead — 6-5 — with a wrist shot from the face-off circle three minutes later, and Filip Forsberg’s empty-net goal with 1:21 remaining sealed a remarkable comeback.

NASHVILLE -- The Nashville Predators scored six straight goals to come back from down four to win 7-5 against the San Jose Sharks at Bridgestone Arena on Tuesday. It was the first four-goal comeback for the Predators in their history.

The loss marked a crushing end to the Sharks’ five-game road trip, which began with an encouraging win over the Detroit Red Wings last Tuesday and was quickly followed by losses to the Columbus Blue Jackets, the New York Islanders, and the Boston Bruins.
