NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Elias Lindholm scored 1:02 into overtime as the Vancouver Canucks stunned Nashville 4-3 on Sunday night and grabbed a 3-1 lead putting the Predators on the brink of elimination in their best-of-seven, first-round series. Brock Boeser had his first hat trick in the playoffs and seventh of his career. He scored on Vancouver's first shot and got the Canucks into overtime scoring twice in the final 2:49. His third came with 8 seconds left in regulation to quiet a Nashville crowd that celebrated much of the third period. The Canucks won with Arturs Silovs making 27 saves in his NHL playoff debut as their third different starting goalie in this series.
