GDT: CDSF Game 1 | Predators vs. Blackhawks | 7:30pm CT | NBCSN, SN 360, TVA Sports

If this had just been a close-throughout back and forth game and we lost like that I would actually be encouraged as I really think we were the better team.

But the fact that we led 3-0 wipes all that away- its just a soul-crushing defeat. Got to find a way to get a W Friday, and we still have a chance...

Now I gotta sit here and listen to the nbc guys talk about how much they want to make love to Toews.

 

[adsfan]

It has really been the story of the season- no doubt we were the better team on the ice, just as we were in many of the losses in the slump, but that doesn't mean squat right now.

Scott freaking Darling makes unbelievable saves and then we lose on that kind of shot- you could almost feel it coming.....

Darling was like that against and some games for Milwaukee. He let in 2 goals a game with 92% saves. Some games he was like a wall.

Still games left guys, Hawks look vulnerable. Press have to play a better 60 minutes friday, or its over.

 

[JJpredfan]

Toward the end of the second, my wife asks "Why aren't they running into people and taking the puck like they did before?"

You got me, babe. It's our thing. We have to lose the second period.

Great thing is I just got a free upgrade on my cable. MLB Network on right now. Don't have to listen. I do like Gord Miller though. Very complimentary of Nashville.

What the hell is this crap lately ,getting beat by back up goalies.

The way they lost doesn't come close to being as bad a blowing a 3-0 lead.

Seeing your team play better hockey than the other team for the majority of the game feels pretty decent to me. Yeah, we lost and blew a lead, but they looked damn good for most of the game.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad we looked good but well looking damn good doesn't matter much in the end if you lose. Going to have to win games or we will be out by the first round. Luckily there are still alot of games left to turn this around.

 

[predfan24]

Preds found a way to choke away a playoff game and leave me crushed.?What a shocker! (Obvious sarcasm)

 

[PredsFanFromla]

Darling can go back as a benchwarmer now

I'm glad you told me. Didn't realize you had to win to...win.

Trying to be a bit positive since it's one game in a seven game series. Damn lol

Just made the mistake of looking at the Preds Facebook page

Please please tell me that after a win our fan base doesn't go to the other teams page to gloat like a bunch of teenaged aholes. I'd be embarrassed.

Your answer is easily gleaned from the opening statement. C'mon man, it's Facebook, it's like virtual junior high for immature adults and stay-at-home moms.

At least wait 'til the series is over. That kind of thing could come back to bite you. Although I think that the Blackhawk fans I've "met" wouldn't really care.

 

[twig]

Well .... Only three more games till golf season.

 

[klt2001]

If the script holds, we will play better, but be unable to score, and Pekka will let in a backbreaking softie.
Greek tragedy, I'm telling you..

Pretty much what happened and the story of this season. Only can hope the story line will have a different ending for a change.

 

[Mass]

Encouraged and discouraged all at that the same time from that one. Incredibly fun game for sure. Hope they start Crawford Friday

 

[BonMorrison]

So heartbreaking.

The real test is to see if this team has the mental fortitude to bounce back.

 

[Marty Party]

Just got home and I'm not even mad. Despite the ending I had a good time. Darling was their MVP tonight. No way we ever put Hutton in if the roles had been reversed.

I feel like the Preds put everything on the line tonight and it's going to cost them Friday. That game may not even be close. Plus Fisher going down doesn't help matters.

Lastly, Krazy Kyle can't play the new organ the Preds bought him.

 

[Roman Yoshi]

I just want to apologize to my steering wheel for beating it like a punching bag while waiting in traffic after that disaster.

Rock bottom man. Rock bottom. If we don't win this series, I want Poile out. Gone. Done.

 

[Kabob Saget]

Lastly, Krazy Kyle can't play the new organ the Preds bought him.

His performance on that organ tonight was the equivalent of blowing a hockey game up 3-0.

We played well tonight minus the 2nd. Hats off to Darling. I hope our youngsters can regroup and come back Friday with that physical edge and same pep we saw in the 1st, 3rd, and OT.

Please tell me that our Hf fan base doesn't go to the the preds facebook after a loss looking for people gloating like teenagers....
