NASHVILLE -- The Calgary Flames couldn't overcome a power outage in the Music City.
Pekka Rinne made 24 saves and Calle Jarnkrok scored to help the Nashville Predators to a 3-1 win against the Flames at Bridgestone Arena on Thursday.
Dougie Hamilton scored and Chad Johnson made 14 saves for Calgary, who have lost back-to-back games for the first time since Jan. 23-24. Calgary also lost 4-2 at the Washington Capitals on Tuesday to open a three-game road trip. Colton Sissons and Ryan Ellis also scored for the Predators.
"There's no cause for worry," Flames coach Glen Gulutzan said. "You've got to push. It wasn't like today's game we were dominated and we weren't ready to play. We were ready to play. They're a good hockey club.
"The message is going to stay the same. You're going to lose back-to-back games at times. I like our effort. We outchanced them tonight. Our power play needed to get an equalizer for us. In five attempts, we needed to get one there."
