Locked On Predators - Daily Podcast On The Nashville Predators

The Nashville Predators beat the Minnesota Wild last night 6-2 at Bridgestone Arena, and Nick and Ann break down all the action from an important central division victory. We discuss Ryan Johansen's hat trick performance that included two power play goals, Roman Josi's return to multiple point/game form, and talk about Matt Duchene's profanity dissertation after an amazing goal through four Wild players. Juuse Saros was under pressure all game long - we talk about how Saros fared under a barrage from Kirill Kaprizov and former Predators Ryan Hartman and Kevin Fiala. Plus - Eeli Tolvanen was a healthy scratch last night. What did head coach John Hynes say about that and about the performance of Philip Tomasino who saw time on the top line? We have a packed game break down in this episode!

The Nashville Predators have a challenging match up tonight at Bridgestone Arena against the red hot Minnesota Wild. Nick and Ann take a look at how each of these teams have performed lately, and why Nashville will have to keep a handle on Wild players like Kiril Kaprizov, Ryan Hartman, and Joel Erikson Ek. Tonight's game isn't the only tough game on the Preds' April schedule. We take a look at what the Predators need to do to have a strong performance with a very difficult April schedule to snag a playoff spot in a competitive Western Conference.

After a very disappointing loss to the Buffalo Sabres, Ann and Nick have a blunt conversation about whether or not the Nashville Predators really ARE a playoff team. Despite Filip Forsberg, Roman Josi, and Matt Duchene having strong seasons, does this Preds team have enough talent to compete in the playoffs? With one of the most difficult remaining schedules in the NHL, can the Predators correct their mistakes quickly enough to hold onto a post season spot? It is Monday - so that means plus/minus! What went well this week for the Predators, and what players/things were not so great over the last week? Finally, to cleanse the palate from disappointing hockey talk and in the spirit of the Grammy awards, Nick and Ann discuss what song best represents some of Nashville's favorite players.

Tonight the Nashville Predators take on the Buffalo Sabres, and in today's episode Nick and Ann break down why this game is a "must win" for the Preds as they face a very tough April schedule. We discuss the keys to a Predators win tonight and what Filip Forsberg and Matt Duchene need to do to help this team earn a critical two points in Buffalo. We also take a far-too-early look ahead at Nashville's potential play off spot. How would the Predators stack up against the Minnesota Wild or the Colorado Avalanche? And why do Nick and Ann think the best possible match up for the Predators in the first round of the post season may be against one of the best teams in the entire league?

Today we tackle a number of topics from our listeners and take a look back at the month of March for the Nashville Predators. What missed opportunities were there for John Hynes and the Preds over the last 31 days? Did Tanner Jeannot, Filip Forsberg, and the rest of the Predators set the team up for success going into a difficult April schedule? We also discuss Juuse Saros's workload - does John Hynes need to call on David Rittich more in net for the team coming down the stretch? We'll tell you why we don't think that is likely to happen. Plus we analyze the importance of a healthy Dante Fabbro for this team and for Roman Josi as well. Finally, we break down the second line's struggles and whether Luke Kunin and Eeli Tolvanen are under pressure to produce.

The Nashville Predators won at home last night against the Ottawa Senators, but it wasn't the prettiest win for the Preds. Depth scoring by Michael McCarron and Tanner Jeannot carried the team to a 4-1 victory. Nick and Ann discuss the "identity" hockey the third and fourth lines embody, how Juuse Saros helped win the game, and what the top line of Filip Forsberg, Matt Duchene, and Ryan Johansen may need to do to jump start their line once more. Plus we look at strength of schedule in the Western Conference - which teams have an easier path to the play offs and which teams will be working hard in April to earn a post season appearance?

On today's' episode Nick and Ann take a closer look at the debate raging over the Norris Trophy front runners, Cale Makar of the Colorado Avalanche and Roman Josi of the Predators. Does Makar's goal total outweigh Josi's point total? Will voters weigh a strong Avalanche roster more heavily over a Predators team that is still chasing a play off spot? Nick also explains how Roman Josi's 2020 Norris Trophy win may indicate Cale Makar is a front runner this season.

The Nashville Predators take on the Ottawa Senators tonight, and it will be the first time former Predator Austin Watson returns to Bridgestone Arena to face his former team. Watson's complicated on and off ice relationship with Nashville Predators fans has us discussing what the reception tonight will be as Watson takes the ice.

We talk about what the Nashville Predators need to do in this game against Ottawa to prove they are still a play off team and avoid the pitfalls in their losses against the LA Kings and the Vegas Golden Knights. What do players like Filip Forsberg and Matt Duchene need to do tonight to help this team earn a critical two points?

In today's episode, Nick and Ann explain why the Nashville Predators' 5-4 win over the Philadelphia Flyers is comparable to the Will Smith Oscar slap (yes, really!) Plus, we break down Tanner Jeannot and Yakov Trenin's "revival" of the Herd Line, grade Jeremy Lauzon's first week in Smashville, and ask the question we didn't think we'd have to ask this season: Is there concern over Juuse Saros's recent performance?
