#NashvillePredators #NHLHockey #Preds

After ending up down three games to none in their first round series against the Colorado Avalanche, the Nashville Predators couldn't break down the Avs defense or contain their offense in last night's game four and end up eliminated from the playoffs in a 5-3 loss. While the Predators weren't expected to win this series, Nick and Ann breakdown exactly what went wrong in last night's game that resulted in a sweep for the Avs, including our "one word" to describe the game. We try to sum up the odd "vibe" in Nashville regarding the Predators this season and pinpoint what may have caused a subtle disconnect between fans and franchise. We step back and try to take a big picture view of the season - how do the highs of performances by Roman Josi, Matt Duchene, Filip Forsberg, and Juuse Saros mesh with the lows of a team that limped through the end of the regular season and ended up embarrassed in the playoffs? We also talk about the most telling :30 on the ice at Bridgestone Arena last night and what it may mean for the Preds moving forward. Finally, we take a minute to celebrate and speculate as Roman Josi is named a Norris Trophy finalist and Juuse Saros is named a Vezina finalist.
