Predators become 1st team to clinch playoff spot

Get your catfish ready because the Nashville Predators are heading back to the playoffs.

The Predators became the first team to clinch a playoff spot this season with a 4-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche on Friday night.

This will be the Predators' fourth consecutive playoff appearance and the 11th in their 19-year history.

Nashville now sits comfortably with a four-point cushion in the Presidents' Trophy race at 104, and is just six points away from matching the franchise record of 110 set during the 2006-07 campaign.

Last season, the Predators came within two wins of capturing the franchise's first-ever Stanley Cup, ultimately falling short in Game 6 of the final against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
