James Neal wasted little time in finding the scoresheet in his return to the Nashville Predators' lineup on Tuesday.
Late in the first period, Neal fired a shot top corner, beating Colorado Avalanche netminder Semyon Varlamov for his 11th goal of the season.
Neal sits in a four-way tie for the team lead in scoring, sharing the honor with Filip Forsberg, Ryan Johansen, and P.K. Subban.
