The odds were stacked against the Vancouver Canucks in Game 4.
Despite starting their third-string goaltender, despite the fact that they trailed 3-1 late in the third period, the Canucks were able to defeat the Nashville Predators 4-3 in overtime.
Brock Boeser led the way for the Canucks with a hat trick. His third goal tied the game with six seconds remaining.
Then, barely a minute into overtime, Elias Lindholm buried the winning goal past Predators goaltender Juuse Saros.

“When you score an overtime winner, it’s always a good feeling,” Lindholm told Sportsnet’s Dan Murphy postgame.
He was also complimentary of the 23-year-old Silovs, who was solid his first career postseason start.
“Coming in there, it’s tough building to play in,” Lindholm said. “We didn’t play our best game, but he made some big saves for us.”
The Canucks have a chance to clinch the series back in Vancouver at Rogers Arena on Tuesday night at 7:00pm.
If they win, it would be the first time the Canucks will have clinched a series on home ice since Kevin Bieksa’s stanchion goal propelled the Canucks past the San Jose Sharks in the 2011 Western Conference Finals.
