The Nashville Predators finally returned to their home ice at Bridgestone Arena last night as they faced off against the Anaheim Ducks. The Predators came away with a 2-1 overtime win, and on today's Locked On Predators we break down last night's game. Nick and Ann share their "one word" to describe the game referencing both a popular Christmas movie scene and a familiar TV show character to explain their takes on the victory. We will tell you why the scoreboard and the stats sheet are a little harder to reconcile after last night's game, and which players came up big to ensure the Predators walked away with two points against one of the lowest ranking teams in the league. We talk about why the Preds have had trouble putting points on the board in the last few games - or are we just making excuses? Head Coach John Hynes ran with some interesting line combinations against the Ducks. We tell you how we feel about last night's lineup and why we believe fans will see more of the same going forward. Finally, we break down just how much Nashville needs to change and what the team must continue doing well as they stare down a tough December schedule.
