James Neal also scored and Pekka Rinne made 22 saves for Nashville, winners of three straight. The Predators continued their home dominance, improving to 8-1-1.
Dustin Byfuglien scored for Winnipeg. The Jets concluded their five-game trip, losing all five games.
Byfuglien opened the scoring with 5:14 remaining in the opening period. His wrist shot from the right point deflected off of Wilson's stick and beat Rinne high to the glove side. After getting his skate tangled Fisher, Rinne fell forward as the puck sailed over his shoulder.
Wilson tied it at 5:39 of the second. Fisher had the puck on the right boards near the faceoff circle and sent a pass to Wilson in front, where he had an easy tap-in for his third of the season. The three assists equaled a career high for Nashville's captain.
Johansen followed 1:08 later on the power play.
