Juuso Parssinen scored with 2:36 left in overtime to lift the Nashville Predators to a 4-3 win over the visiting Minnesota Wild on Thursday.

Parssinen, who also had an assist, cut to the net and, after receiving a pass from Ryan McDonagh, maneuvered the puck between his legs before flipping it past Filip Gustavsson. Cody Glass was also credited with an assist on the game-winning goal.

Mark Jankowski, Kiefer Sherwood and Yakov Trenin also scored for the Predators (42-31-8, 92 points), who will miss the postseason for the first time in nine seasons.

Frederick Gaudreau had two goals, Nic Petan scored and Gustav Nyquist had two assists for the Wild (46-25-11, 103 points) who are headed to the playoffs for the fourth straight season.

The Wild, who have completed their regular season, finished in third place in the Central Division and will face the Dallas Stars or Colorado Avalanche in the first round of the playoffs. Dallas leads the division by one point over Colorado, but the Avalanche have one game remaining while the Stars have completed their regular season.

Nashville, which ends its regular season against those visiting Avalanche on Friday, will be among the teams with the worst odds in the draft lottery.

Nashville outshot the Wild 31-24 with Predators goalie Juuse Saros making 21 saves, while Gustavsson finished with 27 stops.

After Trenin gave the Predators a 3-2 lead with 5:56 left in regulation off assists from Parssinen and Colton Sissons, the Wild tied the game just 16 seconds later on Petan's tally off assists from Samuel Walker and Damien Giroux.

The Predators took a 1-0 lead with a short-handed goal at the 8:02 mark. After getting a pass from Michael McCarron, Tyson Barrie centered the puck to Jankowski, who deflected it past Gustavsson from just a few feet away.

The Wild tied the game at the 14:19 mark. Jon Merrill received the puck from Nyquist and zipped a cross-ice pass to Gaudreau, who one-timed it past Saros.

The Predators regained the lead two minutes later, when Sherwood knocked in a loose puck in front of the goal with 3:41 left in the first period, with Tommy Novak and Luke Evangelista credited with assists on the goal.

The Wild tied the game in the second period when Gaudreau knocked a loose puck past Saros from close range at the 10:46 mark. Marcus Foligno and Nyquist were credited with assists on the play.
