Hey! You suck!
Wait was it Josi's or Bourques goal? Huge fantasy implications for me
Definitely Josi. I think the early confusion was because he was next to Bourque who is 57, and Josi scored who was 59.

Yeah, not the most creative offensive game, but at least we were good defensively.
Ladies and gentlemen of the Predators Nation:
We have just witnessed history.
The Nashville Predators have scored their first ever Game Winning Goal into an Empty Net - in franchise history.
Ponder that: this is game 1,337 in team history (including the playoffs). There have been 3,527 goals scored in that span. 112 of those have been empty netters.
And this is the first time we've won a game on an ENG.
Preds need to start playing a complete game. Moments of brilliance but every game so far they've dropped off significantly.

Has Neal done anything this year? Haven't seen you guys say much, if anything about him so far.

I hope that the whole season isn't going to be as boring as these first three games
Ugly, but I'll take it.
3rd line looked a little better with Bourque.
He definitely made an individual impact. Not sure if it made for a better "line" though. He's a straight line player at times.
Before the season a number of us said that Cody needed decent wingers around him to succeed. This has not changed and while individually he has been so-so unless some combination of wings is found to work up and down the roster its gonna be tough. I can make this prediction if the offense continues to sputter it will be blamed on the centers. And while Fish and Riberio will take there portion the whipping boy will be Cody. And to be honest Riberio has been the worst center thru the first three games IMO.
Adam Vingan said:— The Predators are the second team in NHL history to begin the season with three consecutive wins in which they scored no more than three goals and allowed no more than one, according to Elias Sports Bureau. The 2007-08 Capitals are the other.

I think we have to improve that 3rd line via trade during season. There are some teams that bought players in the summer just to trade them for draft picks. Obviously we dont want to give 1st but giving a 2nd or 3rd we could land some decent scorer to improve the third line. If PL doesn't solve this problem quickly, the trade may come sooner than we think.
Now I know that Poile has said that he thinks this is the team we ride this year, but Fiala/Jarnkrok/Arvidsson/Watson/Bourque aren't the wingers of a team that goes deep in the playoffs. Well maybe one of those is.
We'll have to wait and see, maybe the problem will solve itself out but right now it's hard to see.
I dunno, can't put my thumb on it. There's no one I would plug down playing "badly", and sure there have been some sweet plays, but rather sporadic and so uninspiring.
Thank gawd for the d and Rinne settling into the season so fast.
