Stillman & Company

The Nashville Predators avoided elimination with a game-five win over Vancouver.  What did we think of the performance?  Jared Tweeted that the Preds weren't going to score and then they immediately scored.  Juuse Saros helped steal the game and close it out in the 3rd period.  Vancouver chose not to challenge the first goal from the Preds.  We take your phones.

The Preds are trying to avoid elimination in the playoffs tonight, GM Barry Trotz joins the show for his weekly visit.  What are some of the keys to a Preds victory?  How much do they need Juuse Saros to step up?  We finish up with Preds Gameday. 

The Titans selected OT J.C. Latham in the 1st round of the draft, do the Titans still have enough OTs on the team?  What do we make of an Adam Schefter report that the NYG were high on Joe Alt?  ESPN CFB analyst Trevor Matich joins the show for his weekly visit to help us break down the draft class of the Titans.

The Athletic had their way too early 2025 mock draft, where do they have the Titans picking and whom?  What do we make of all the optimism around WR Treylon Burks this offseason?  The Preds face elimination vs VAN in Game 5 tonight and how much does the collapse from Game 4 matter?  How do we think tonight's game might go?

We begin the show on the Titans and more fallout post-draft.  Are we worried the team is doing some of the same stuff that got GM Jon Robinson fired?  Most of the outside football world did not love the Titans draft class and they may have reached on Sweat.  Should they have tried harder to trade back?  We take your phones.

Mel Kiper Jr gave his draft grade for the Titans and it wasn't great.  Do we think the Titans reached on players for need?  Do we think the Titans could've traded back in the 2nd round and still landed Sweat given his consensus grade?  We take your phones to wrap out the show.

The Preds are down 3-1 in the series vs Vancouver, how worried are we that Juuse Saros is not the goalie to carry the team in the playoffs?  This feels like a series that should either be tied or the Preds have the lead.  What have we thought about some of the coaching adjustments in the series thus far?  Did we think there was a big difference in the atmosphere between Games 3 and Games 4?

Jared shares some thoughts on the Titans draft and pick T'Vondre Sweat.  The team picked him even given his character issues.  The team said they did a lot of homework on the pick beforehand.  How do we think Sweat could work out on the field?  What about some of the other later-round picks?  We take your phones.

We open the show talking Nashville Predators after their game 4 loss to Vancouver last night.  How are we feeling about the series with them on the brink of elimination?  What about the play of Josi, Forsberg, and Saros as the series progresses?  Colton Sissons just missed icing the game with an empty-netter.  The Preds gave up the game-winner in OT pretty quickly.  We take your phones.

In the final hour of the special edition of Stillman & Company, Jared reacted to breaking news from Frank Seravalli about Canucks backup goaltender Casey DeSmith is out for Game 4 against the Preds. Could the Preds even the series? Later in the hour, Preds CEO Sean Henry joined the show and shared his thoughts about the Preds season and their great success with the 1st season under Andrew Brunette and Barry Trotz. To end the show, Jared gave his predications for Game 4. Who do you think will win?
