The Predators lost both games in New York over the weekend, a 7-4 loss to the Islanders and a 4-0 loss to the Rangers. Nashville (21-32-7, 49 points) remains in seventh place in the Central Division, four points ahead of the Chicago Blackhawks.

The Bruins have dropped six of their last seven and now have two points and three teams standing between them and the final playoff spot.

O’Reilly gave the Predators a 2-1 lead at 11:33. Stamkos collected a loose puck just inside the offensive zone and dropped it to Evangelista, who quickly moved it to O’Reilly in the left circle for a shot past the lunging blocker of Swayman.

Ryan O'Reilly scored twice and had an assist, Steven Stamkos had a goal and two assists and the Nashville Predators picked up a rare road win with a 6-3 victory over the Boston Bruins on Tuesday night.

A lineup change by Andrew Brunette sparked the Nashville Predators and Steven Stamkos, who ended a 13-game scoring slump in a win over the Bruins.
