It started well for San Jose. Granlund scored 5-1 in a numerical superiority a couple of minutes into the second period, assisted by William Eklund.

But Nashville reduced the lead, equalized, and then overwhelmed San Jose with six goals in a row.

Filip Forsberg was credited with two assists during the incredible turnaround, and scored 7-5 in an open net.

We did everything wrong in the first period. Then we played ourselves up in the second, won that period, and put ourselves in a good position ahead of the third. And then we made some quick decisions, and also scored the leading goal fairly quickly, he says to the newspaper.

It became a turnaround and it feels nice that we didn't waste an entire match due to the start.

The turnaround is the largest in Nashville's history. The club has now won four matches in a row, and Forsberg has scored goals in the last six matches.
