"It was an entertaining game," Allen said. "I thought a lot of chances both ways and obviously a wild overtime. I think we showed a lot of guts here. We were down two, lost to them last game and found a way to battle back. Obviously we didn't get the win, but we get a point out of it against a team that's on the up."
Bonino gave the Predators a 1-0 lead at 7:59 of the first period on a wrist shot from the right face-off circle. Rocco Grimaldi knocked the puck down entering the zone and found Bonino on the rush.
"We had to find a way to do a little more and a little more," Johansen said. "You've got to keep finding ways in the little details and the little plays in the game, and I think we've done that the last two games. Now we'll look at things again tomorrow and keep finding ways to improve and continue to get better."
Johansen gave the Predators a 2-0 lead at 11:37 of the first period on a rebound. Forsberg's shot was redirected by Calle Jarnkrok, and Johansen got to the rebound to beat Allen.
"I needed to elevate for sure," Johansen said. "Especially when you're in a funk, you've really got to look yourself in the mirror and understand what you need to bring to the table and do everything you can to bring more. Being an older guy now, that's taking more accountability for that. So I feel like I've played a couple of solid games to help us as much as I can. When we have 20 men going, it's a lot of fun out there and we do a lot of good things."
David Perron scored for the Blues to make it 2-1 at 12:30 of the second period on the rush. He got to the rebound of his own shot and beat Predators goalie Juuse Saros with his second attempt.
