Johan Franzen scored a goal and was generally Detroit's top offensive player as the Red Wings nipped the Predators 3-2 in Nashville Friday night and tied their series at 1-1.
Franzen notched his first goal of the post-season, as did teammates Ian White and Cory Emmerton. Emmerton's goal, unassisted, was a beauty as he fired a perfect shot from the left wing past Nashville goalie Pekka Rinne. White's opening goal was assisted by Tomas Holmstrom and Drew Miller while Pavel Datsyuk and Brad Stuart assisted on Franzen's goal. All Detroit players who contribute Friday night notched their first points of this series.
