NASHVILLE – The Vancouver Canucks hurt the Nashville Predators with their power play. Again.

Bo Horvat scored one of Vancouver’s five power-play goals as the Canucks beat Nashville 6-3 on Thursday night to stop a three-game slide.

The Canucks went 5-for-6 with the man advantage. Elias Pettersson had a goal and two assists, and Tyler Graovac, J.T. Miller and Brock Boeser also scored power-play goals before Tanner Pearson made it 6-3 with a short-handed goal with 2:02 remaining.

“It just shows how important power plays are,” Horvat said.

Nashville’s losing streak is at six games. Matt Duchene, Calle Jarnkrok and Ryan Johansen scored for the Predators, and Pekka Rinne made 12 saves on 17 shots before he was replaced by Juuse Saros.
