Official Nashville Predators Thread

BOS has a game in hand. But yes we have 113. BOS, TB, WIN all have 110 points.

So doesn't that mean with a 3 pt lead with two to play they need 1 win or two one pt outings to clinch home?

Boston has an extra game remaining, so that’s two extra possible points.

Boston has an extra game to play. We have 2 left, they have 3. Boston can still get 116 points if they win out

People on Twitter blaming the call on Toronto? I'm lost. Maybe drunk. Idk.

It was completely their fault. Completely.

Toronto the league headquarters making the replay call, not the Maple Leafs

Hundreds of people saying F Toronto, that the call was because of Toronto? Explain.

Ridiculous. Worst I've ever seen.

Why would they hate Nashville? Nashville's rise as this weird, modern hockey town is unironically the best thing to happen to the NHL in years.

The blue bloods hate the fans. It’s painfully obvious how much they hate Nashville for no reason.

That bolded aspect of your quote is true. I was in Montreal during the playoffs last year for work. The people I was up there seeing were impressed by the performance of the Predators as a team on the one hand, but were also bemused by intense fan support on the other. There were a couple of "I didn't even know they had fans" remarks. I've heard that in Boston too. It's patronizing, and they said it right in front of me knowing I am a Predators fan. Some fans of some of the blue blood teams have kind of an "Aww, aren't they cute, they figured out what this hockey thing is and they are excited" attitude towards our fans.

Honestly, it's not any different than the reaction that Tennessee fans (or fans of any big college team) might have about an up-and-coming, new kid on the block team. In college football the roles are reversed; we are the establishment, and we tend to look down on newcomers.

That was such a BS call on the interference.

 

[Burhead]

Just ordered a Rinne jersey and a Preds cap can't wait to get them. First team gear I've bought.

Going to drink the Preds on to victory at the Saucer tonight.

 

[Burhead]

So we all know a win tonight will clinch the division and conference but if Boston loses in regulation tonight we could also clinch the President's Trophy too.

Goals by Washington and Boston have me feeling a good deal worse than about 15 minutes ago.

Man we look like trash

Is it me or just the team doesn't respond well in high pressure games?

They have all year until the last 2 weeks.

 

[PotS]

They have innane ability to look like crap and then sneak in a goal.

They do. We needed that one bad to blunt Washington's momentum.

Who scored? I stepped away and missed it.

Smith.

Boston tied it up 2-2 against Florida in the 2nd.

It's like they're a step behind Washington at every move of the puck
