ESPN will host Monday’s matchup between the Colorado Avalanche and Nashville Predators in Game 4 of the first round of the 2022 Stanley Cup Playoffs with puck drop set at 9:40 p.m. ET. The game will take place at Bridgestone Arena in downtown Nashville.
Despite a spirited effort from the Predators in Game 3, they once again found out that you can’t bring a knife to a gunfight. Colorado had four power-play goals and broke open a 3-3 game with four unanswered goals to cruise to a 7-3 win and a commanding 3-0 series lead. Nashville came to play Saturday and Roman Josi had “Smashville” rocking with a goal to tie the game at 3-3. Then Gabe Landeskog struck again.
