The Nashville Predators opened their five game western road trip last night against the Edmonton Oilers and suffered their worst loss so far this season. On today's Locked On Predators, we break down the 7-4 loss to the Oilers including our one word to describe the game. After an early goal by Mattias Ekholm, the Predators came absolutely unglued in the remainder of the first period. We will tell you what we think caused the wheels to come off the bus in the first twenty minutes and where we've seen this problem before with the team. We also discuss the "identity" style of hockey the Predators are dedicated to playing. Can it be effective against teams like Edmonton, and can it eventually get the Predators closer to a Stanley Cup? After another disappointing loss, what comes next for Nashville? We talk about how critical the next ten games are for the Predators' entire season and what the team MUST do to turn things around. Finally, we wrestle with who or what is to blame for the Preds' tough start to the season? Why is a team that looks so good on paper unable to get it together? There is plenty tough talk on today's Locked On Predators podcast.
