The Canucks staged a late rally for the second consecutive game, after Nashville held period leads of 2-1 and 3-1.

Bonino and Sissons each had a goal and an assist for led the Preds, while Ryan Hartman and Calle Jarnkrok supplied Nashville's other goals.

Nashville received offensive contributions from three former Canucks -- Bonino, Dan Hamhuis and Yannick Weber -- and Vancouver-area native Kyle Turris, who furnished a helper, and Sissons.
