NASHVILLE -- The Nashville Predators scored six straight goals to come back from down four to win 7-5 against the San Jose Sharks at Bridgestone Arena on Tuesday. It was the first four-goal comeback for the Predators in their history.

The Nashville Predators are on a seasonal-best four-game winning streak and don’t look to be stopping anytime soon. Despite their performance, there have been some inconsistencies, especially in the net.

Nashville owns a 14-game point streak (13-0-1) against San Jose that dates back to March 16, 2019, in which the team has allowed more than two goals against only once. The last time the Predators were defeated at home by the Sharks was on Oct. 21, 2018, by a score of 5-4 and the last time they lost on the road was Nov. 9, 2019, in a 2-1 shootout.

Yaroslav Askarov will make his first start against his former team when the San Jose Sharks host the Nashville Predators on Thursday night.

In a contest that featured 11 goals, three Nashville power-play scores, three fights (in four seconds), an ejection and a blown three-goal lead, the Predators (18-22-7) finally managed to extend their winning streak to a season-high five games.

Both things can be true. Luke Kunin and Barclay Goodrow and Ty Dellandrea’s back-to-back-to-back fights, the San Jose Sharks down 3-0 just 6:53 into the game, did spark the team’s spirited comeback. The Sharks would lose 6-5 to the Nashville Predators,
