Series Talk: Round 1: Predators vs. Canucks

[Predsanddead24]

Kevin Gravel called up?

Seems like we just want an extra body on D around in case we need it.

Barrie for Novak

 

[Southstarpreds]

Yall have fun with that. Arena won't be filled til the 3rd lol

Why is Nashville the only city where the fans have a problem being in their seats at game time? We are not New York ,or LA. Their fans are there ready to go !

It takes time to fill up a catfish with beer.

Better public transportation....need 3 rail lines... for 65,24,40 station by the pedestrian bridge

Typically we don't. But a 6pm start when downtown will be flooded with people arriving for other events you might see an issue. Especially an arena that is smack dab in the middle of the craziness.

....I'll say Broadway has a way of pulling you in and getting you stuck on 1 more drink

I24/40/65 WILL be a disaster so get there early or find a better way to get around the traffic. That stretch of road from Trinity Lane to Hermitage over/under pass to Chatt/Knox has been horrible since 1982!

The lineup from game 5 played well. Not sure I would make any changes if they don't have to. At least that is my thought for game 6.

I mean NY has a subway stop right by MSG. LA I'm not real sure where it's located.

Big issue here is you are taking an already busy entertainment district and packing it with another 3-4 large events that are all near each other and have no way to get them in and out except cars.

This isn't the early 2000's when it was the only thing down there and you had a huge parking spot literally at the back door.

 

[Marty Party]

They're opening the doors to the arena at 3:00. That's what time I'll be getting downtown regardless.

Y'all should do the same if possible.

So many events going on tomorrow. Our game, the chair tossing event at Nissan, Ryman show, Schemerhorn concert, CMA theater concert, Brooklyn Bowl concert and a Sounds game. Plus all of the woo girls and boys that'll be partying.

 

[hido]

Gravel to Nashville. Wonder how many guys are sick?

Crypto.com is SW of downtown. There are no subways, but there is light rail nearby. Freeways and parking lots.

34/Penn is under MSG. Trains, subways, buses up at street level. It's a smorgasbord of public transportation.

 

[hockey diva]

The earliest I can leave work would be 4:30 pm and I will be coming from Pleasant View.

And no one naturally goes downtown in LA because is a homeless cesspool.

Hey...my neck of the woods

Hey...my neck of the woods

I work up there and live in west Nashville.

Alright fellas....

Send this back to Vancouver so we can really send their fans home disappointed after game 7.

Just hoping we can somehow turn around our horrible, horrible play/mojo at home during playoffs. It really is incredible how terrible we have been at home basically since the Cup run.

We are 4-10 last 14 home playoff games with a minus 19 goal differential. Have lost 5 in a row

What is even more crazy? All 4 wins going all the way back to 2018 were OT wins. We have not won a home playoff game in regulation since the Colorado series in the Presidents trophy season.

That means for us fans in the last 14 home playoff games we have either lost (and a bunch of them were complete blowouts) or had a VERY stressful win. (and possibly the most stressful loss of all time last Sunday)

Here's hoping for a win and a little less stress please- fanbase deserves it- lol

Brunette a Jack Adams finalist alongside Tocchet and Bowness.


Which is especially funny since it Bowness is on the hot seat now after their first round performance.

 

[Southstarpreds]

I 'am pretty sure if this was a Titans playoff game tonight fans would find a way to be there 2 hrs before kickoff getting their fun on !

 

[sparkle twin]

If this was a Titans playoff game it wouldn't be on a weekday so workers wouldn't be downtown and most people would already be off so they could go downtown at any time.

And that means Morgan Wallen wouldn't be playing at Nissan Stadium.

And even if he happened to be playing Bridgestone the same day as a titans playoff game, it probably wouldn't all start at the same dang time!

If he wins, he can go for golfcart joy-ride

 

[Predsanddead24]

It's actually kind of wild how many Jack Adams finalists get fired within two years of their nomination.

2023 Finalists:
Montgomery-Still employed
Hakstol- Fired 2024
Ruff- Fired 2024

2022 Finalists:
Sutter- Fired 2023
Brunette - Fired 2022
Gallant- Fired 2023

2021 Finalists:
Brind'Amour- Still Employed
Dean Evason - Fired 2023
Quenneville - Fired 2022 (albeit for non-performance related reasons)

2020 Finalists:
Bruce Cassidy - Fired 2022 (albeit won a Cup with Vegas)
Vigneault - Fired 2021
Tortorella - Fired 2021

Didn't feel like going back further but that's 10/12 head coaches fired shortly thereafter. Which I suppose makes sense since a lot of times it is more of a coach of the team that overperformed most award and when the team regresses they get fired.
