Steven Stamkos achieved a significant milestone, scoring his 12th goal of the season during a 3-0 victory for the Nashville Predators over the Vancouver Canucks. This goal marked the 567th of his NHL career, moving him past Patrick Marleau into 24th place on the all-time goals list.

Gustav Nyquist and Colton Sissons contributed with empty-net goals in the final moments of the game. Juuse Saros was instrumental in the win, making 27 saves and earning his fourth shutout of the season, helping the Predators end a three-game losing streak.

The Canucks struggled without several key players, including Elias Pettersson, Quinn Hughes, and Thatcher Demko, who were sidelined due to injuries. Kevin Lankinen, filling in for Demko, made 16 saves but could not secure a victory as the Canucks failed to capitalize on their power plays.
