SERIES NOTES:

Post-series assessment: The Nashville Predators defeated the Anaheim Ducks 4-games-2 in MLB/NBA/NHL best-of-7 playoff series 1129. With their series 1129 win, the Nashville Predators improve their best-of-7 NHL playoff series record to 1-5 overall and 1-5 in the Preliminary round. With their series 1129 loss, the Anaheim Ducks see their best-of-7 NHL playoff series record fall to 5-3 overall and 2-2 in the Preliminary round. The win order posted by the victorious Nashville Predators in series 1129 was WLWLWW: Series 1129 thus becomes the seventh NHL Preliminary-round series, the 14th NHL series (all rounds), and the 38th MLB/NBA/NHL series (all rounds) to follow this win order to completion. In series 1129 Game 5, the visiting Nashville Predators trailed the host Anaheim Ducks by a goal with as little as 37 seconds left in regulation, but rallied to notch a victory: In the history of best-of-7 NHL playoff games from 1939 through 2010, road teams such as Nashville that trailed by a goal with 37 seconds left had a game record of only 9-474 (.019).

Pre-series assessment: In the 2010-11 regular season, Anaheim finished tied in points with Nashville, but has home-ice advantage by virtue of a tiebreaker. From 1939 through the 2010 NHL Finals, when NHL teams were tied in regular-season points with their best-of-7 playoff series opponents, the teams with home-ice advantage have posted a 10-6 (.625) best-of-7 series record in those series against those opponents. MLB/NBA/NHL best-of-7 playoff series 1129 is the sixth best-of-7 playoff series for Nashville, and the eighth for Anaheim as the "Anaheim Ducks" (in contrast to the "Anaheim Mighty Ducks"). In best-of-7 playoff series, Nashville has a 0-5 series record, a 0-5 Prelim-round series record, and a 2-3 Game 1 record, while Anaheim (as just the unadorned "Ducks") has a 5-2 series record, a 2-1 Prelim-round record, and a 4-3 Game 1 record. Series 1129 is the first best-of-7 NHL playoff series meeting between Nashville and Anaheim.
