Nick Bonino scored Nashville's lone goal as the Predators fell to the Winnipeg Jets, 2-1, on Tuesday night at Bridgestone Arena. The result pushes Nashville's winless streak to five games, as they drop their first meeting of the season with their division rival.
Preds goaltender Juuse Saros stopped 23 shots on the night and the home team managed 39 shots at the Winnipeg net, but as was the case in Saturday's loss, Nashville couldn't get much to fall in their favor.
Under normal circumstances, a 2-1 loss wouldn't necessarily elicit frustrated responses from the participants. However, considering their current situation, Tuesday's result left another disappointing taste with the Predators.
