The Predators lost both games in New York over the weekend, a 7-4 loss to the Islanders and a 4-0 loss to the Rangers. Nashville (21-32-7, 49 points) remains in seventh place in the Central Division, four points ahead of the Chicago Blackhawks.
O’Reilly gave the Predators a 2-1 lead at 11:33. Stamkos collected a loose puck just inside the offensive zone and dropped it to Evangelista, who quickly moved it to O’Reilly in the left circle for a shot past the lunging blocker of Swayman.
The Nashville Predators wrapped up their three-game road trip Tuesday with a 6-3 win over the Boston Bruins at TD Garden.
