The Nashville Predators have some additional inspiration for Game 6 against the Anaheim Ducks.
Injured forwards Kevin Fiala and Ryan Johansen joined the Predators faithful to cheer on their teammates at the elimination game Monday night.
Johansen was ruled out for the playoffs Friday afternoon with a left thigh injury that was later confirmed to be acute compartment syndrome. Fiala broke his femur on an awkward fall into the boards in Game 1 of Nashville's second-round series against the St. Louis Blues.
The pair watched Game 5 of the Western Conference Final together from a local hospital Saturday night.
