The game remained scoreless until the final moments, reflecting a tense standoff where neither side wanted to make the first mistake.
It wasn't until there were just over two minutes left on the clock that Pius Suter found the net, breaking the silence and the deadlock. This late goal sealed the deal for Vancouver, dashing the hopes of the Predators and their fans for a comeback.
