He played top-six minutes in the first round, and that trend continued in Game 1 against the St. Louis Blues. You have to give our guys credit.
Fiddler scored when he was able to direct the puck past goalie Jake Allen after Allen failed to poke it away following a botched St. Louis attempt at a clearing pass.
- Nashville Predators left wing Kevin Fiala will miss the remainder of the National Hockey League playoffs after suffering a broken left leg in Nashville's 4-3 victory at St. Louis, the team announced.
"He's a veteran guy so he's been in these situations before and he stepped up and got us a big goal", Subban said. He now has five points in five games this postseason.
The injury created a delay at 1:46 of the second period, with the Predators leading 1-0, and Subban quickly increased the lead to 2-0 when play resumed with his first goal of this year's playoffs and 12th of his career at 2:22 of the period.
In the second period against the Blues, Fiala was skating hard towards the net but lost his balance.
It looked like he was favoring his knee, but the medical staff took no chances and stretched the young winger off the ice. I don't think anybody could have thought or planned for an incident like that with Kevin. "Yet, our guys you could hear them on the bench when it happened and making sure their next shift was going to be a good one for Kevin".

Despite their majorities, Republicans need Democratic votes in the Senate and likely the House to pass the spending legislation. Conservatives have sought a reduction in U.S. tax rates for years, but they are also adamant about reducing the debt.
Subban thought he scored in the first period while the Predators were on a power play.
The Blues got even in the third period on goals from Jaden Schwartz and Vladimir Sobotka, testing the Predators' response to adversity again.
Game 2 is Friday night.
The Blues rallied in the third.
NOTES: Cody McLeod also played for Nashville after not appearing in the first-round series against Chicago. The Blues kept the same lineup they used in Game 5 against Minnesota, meaning healthy scratches were RW Dmitrij Jaskin, C Ivan Barbashev and LW Zach Sanford.
