Three Keys to a Nashville Predators Game 2 Win over the Vancouver Canucks



It took 12 seconds of hell for the Nashville Predators to blow a possible Game 1 win against the Vancouver Canucks, who now have a 1-0 advantage in their Stanley Cup Playoffs series against the Preds. But despite the loss, the Predators have plenty of things they can be proud of from game one… things that can hopefully lead to a win in Game 2. On today’s preview episode, we hear from Ryan McDonagh, Luke Schenn, and Andrew Brunette on what the Preds need to build off of heading into Game 2 Tuesday. Plus, we’ll look at three big keys to the Nashville Predators’ success in Game 2, and we’ll look around at some of the other big surprises in the Stanley Cup Playoffs so far.

  1. Big one for both teams. Hard loss for Preds in game one but a win here would still be mission accomplished. A loss here and they're likely in trouble. Canucks are a very good road team as well.

  2. I think this is a must-win for the preds.
    If Van wins, and they split the two Preds-at-home games..then it'll be 3-1 with two SHOTS for Van to win at home.
    this is definitely a must-win for Preds.

  3. Hi, an excited Canucks fan here! Thank you for your analysis, it's great to hear a Nashville perspective and I'd say you were pretty much spot-on regarding the Canucks.

    I thought you guys got unlucky with the come back in game 1, if the Preds are patient with a lead they'll do well all series. Piling on pressure isn't a strength of this Canucks squad.

    Cole and Myers are both prone to turnovers, and Zadorov's decision making can also be pretty bad. I'm sure Nashville will be on the lookout for those situations.
    All our centres are strong defensively, I don't think Vancouver will be stressing too much about match-ups.
    Miller's been unbelievable this year and is hyper-competitive. You probably want to keep him focused on hitting you, not that it would be a fun task. Pettersson has looked devoid of confidence for months and was given nothing much to improve that in game 1. Him performing offensively is probably the biggest difference maker for us, you might want to use your top line against him to keep his mind on defending all the time.
    Hughes will skate with the puck all day, I don't know what you do about that.

    This series is so hard to predict. I think anything could happen. If the Preds advance I'll likely be cheering you on. Nashville always seems such a cool hockey town with amazing fans.
