Nashville Predators Played Uncharacteristic Third Period, Drop Game One to Vancouver Canucks



The Nashville Predators kicked off their first round series against the Vancouver Canucks last night but couldn’t get the game one road win. On today’s Locked On Predators podcast we break down last night’s 4-2 loss including our “one word” to describe the game. A critical twelve second stretch in the third period cost the Predators their lead, and we’ll take a closer look at the breakdown that caused the game to pivot decidedly in Vancouver’s favor. The Predators needed big games from their big three – we’ll talk about what was missing from Filip Forsberg, Roman Josi, and Juuse Saros in last night’s loss. Finally, we have an honest conversation about just how much the Predators and their fans should panic after losing to a tough Canucks team in game one.

  1. That was a choke of all chokes but when the espn threw the 15 games when leading in the third period number out I knew it was over.

  2. I’ve never seen a team so susceptible to quick turnaround goals after giving up a previous goal. It seems like this happens pretty often to this current Preds team.

  3. Canucks fan here. Thought you had that one. Vancouver got off to a slower start not getting shots early and were chasing that game. Vancouver is a much better frontrunner. Demko was honestly a bit shaky too. I didn't really like either goal. He was cheating off the post on the first one and I thought he was down early on the second. Nashville was tough and resilient all night and I thought were a bit unlucky. I'm sure Nashville will be better in game 2 and I think so will Vancouver. Keep the faith on your side Nashville. You have a great hockey club that plays honourable, hard, clean, honest hockey. No shortcuts and no cheap shots. The way the game should be played This series is just ramping up.

  4. History repeats itself. Preds will be 0-13 after losing the first game of this series sadly. Sell the franchise!

  5. Quinn Hughes has unbelievable puck possession numbers, that's a big reason why the Predators didn't have the puck on their sticks very often.

  6. Canucks fan here, I was at the game. What an atmosphere. Not sure Nash will be that loud. Close game, nux in 6. Both teams have another level but in the end the Lindholm / Dakota line will be the difference in the series. Additionally, if Petey starts playing better, Nash won’t have an answer. However, it was a very close game, love all the physicality!
