Nashville Predators’ First-Period Struggles: What Went Wrong Against the Winnipeg Jets?
Then there’s the penalty minutes. The Predators are smack dab in the middle of the league with 49 penalty minutes in six games, but it’s about the type of penalties that are taken and when.
McCarron, who was one of the league leaders in penalties and led the Predators in fights last season with nine, squared off against Logan Stanley when the Predators were down 2-0 in the second period.
While McCarron was likely trying to “fire up” the Predators, Nashville was playing predominantly better already than in the first period. It outshot Winnipeg 15-4 and went to the power play three times.
