GDT: 2 A Days: Preds Training Camp

[ThirdManIn]

Frustration + competitive edge ---> liberties/exceptions taken ---> punches thrown.

It's a guy thing

I hope its nothing serious, I've fought with my friends before. I just hope nothing personal between them is going on which will have a negative vibe in the locker room

 

[triggrman]

I like it, it means they're practicing hard, all of them.

I bet battling over and over against the same guys in camp can wear thin on even the most patient personalities.

Bingo. When the softer guys are fighting it means they're bringing intensity which to me says leadership. I dig it.

First thing that I thought of though was O'callahan vs McClanahan in Miracle.

I like it as long as it wasn't malicious. It's a contact sport, this type of stuff will happen. Also changes the tone of practices fairly quickly which can be a good thing.

Ah...those are all good reasons. I like it. They need to stay away from Shea though, 'cause he'd maim them for life before he realized what he'd done.

Guyz,

Even the Jamaican Bobsled Team in Cool Runnings had inter-teammate strife. However they were able to " Rise Above it " . I suspect the Preds will do the same.

 

[jwhouk]

I'm calling it right now - the words "Swiss Miss" were used just prior to the fight.

 

[bishop12]

Bet Lavy was loving it.

 

[RCola88]

I really wouldn't put much into this guys. It was just heat of the moment, I HIGHLY doubt there is locker room stuff going on here. I think it will bring the team even closer together, like someone stated about the Miracle fight

 

[triggrman]

I don't think any of us are worried about it. I think most of us think it's a good sign.

 

[Drake744]

It's probably the same basic stuff that boils over all the time in camp before football season, except in hockey you can actually throw legitimate punches.

 

[Nashville Transplant]

how rich would it be to see them paired at the Meet The Players thing tomorrow

 

[PredsV82]

agreed. I think for a long time it was felt this team was too passive and slightly invertebrate. If you will fight with a teammate, I suspect you will damn sure fight FOR a teammate.

 

[TootooTrain]

Bet Lavy was loving it.

With a smirk he said...

My kind of team David.

 

[Adz]

Yeah, especially if they got into it again!

The No Fighting Bunch: Shield your eyes! Please be careful and step around this pile of manliness.

Lavy: Jam!

Adz: More! More! More Fighting, Mules!!!!

Only 2 days away from puck drop in SMASHVILLE!!

At Predators practice at Bridgestone. Top 2 forward combos I'm seeing are Bourque-Ribeiro-Neal and Forsberg-Roy-Smith. #preds

Other Predators forward line combos are Stalberg/Wilson-Jarnkrok-Jokinen, Clune/Beck-Gaustad-Nystrom #preds

 

[PredsV82]

OK, that doesnt sound like Wilson has been relegated to the 4th line as was speculated earlier, but hes definitely not in the top 6 either. maybe he and Jarnkrok can get some chemistry and force themselves into some more playing time

How about GB on the top line? If that sticks, who saw that coming?

Doesn't shock me at all.

Sometimes you need the peanut butter to go with the jam.

well played glenn..

I admit I didn't see it coming but Im guessing that the thinking is when your have a center as a setup guy, and a sniper to take a lot of shots, for the other forward you want a guy who can clean up the rebounds not another sniper sitting out at the opposite circle getting pissed because the passes are all going to Neal...
