Blackhawks Beat Nashville Predators 3-1

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) ― Dustin Byfuglien and Tomas Kopecky scored in a 28-second span early in the second period to help the Chicago Blackhawks beat the Nashville Predators 3-1 on Thursday night.

Cristobal Huet made 12 saves, allowing only Martin Erat's goal.

Duncan Keith also scored for Chicago, and Brent Seabrook added two assists.

Byfuglien scored on the power play at 2:21 of the second period. Seabrook blasted a shot off of the right post, and Byfuglien -- stationed in front of the net -- beat Nashville goalie Pekka Rinne off the rebound.

Kopecky then beat Rinne at 2:49.

Erat answered for the Predators at 3:36 of the second period, with the puck bouncing off defender Niklas Hjalmarsson and past Cristobal Huet.

Keith scored at 7:07 of the third period, firing a one-timer from the top edge of the left circle that beat Rinne high to the left side.
