NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Kevin Lankinen made 39 saves and the Nashville Predators beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 2-1 on Tuesday night. Cody Glass and Yakov Trenin scored for Nashville, winners of back-to-back home games. Gustav Nyquist scored and Daniil Tarasov made 26 saves for Columbus, losers of five of six. After beating the Calgary Flames 2-1 at home on Monday, Lankinen edged the Blue Jackets in a game that was rescheduled from a Thanksgiving weekend postponement of a pair of games due to a water main break that made Bridgestone Arena unplayable.
