Who’s to Blame for Nashville Predators’ Epic Choke Job Against the Vancouver Canucks?



The Nashville Predators have outplayed the Vancouver Canucks for most of the series, they’ve had the bulk of the chances in the past two games, and they’re up against a third-string goalie. And yet, it’s the Canucks — not the Predators — one win away from securing a seemingly-simple 4-1 series win.

On today’s show, we debate who deserves most of the blame for Nashville’s missed opportunities in this series, including Sunday’s epic collapse in Game 4. We’ll also debate whether Sunday’s loss was a worse “choke job” than the 2010 Blackhawks series. Plus, do the Nashville Predators still have life in them? Can they rebound to keep themselves alive in the series? We’ll break down the Preds’ chances for Tuesday’s Game 5 and hear from the team about their mindset headed into tonight’s game.

  1. There’s no way this small channel is shilling monopoly go every 5 mins lol. You’ll never build any viewership this way

  2. 😂 saying the scoring line had 8 games playoff experience total is maybe you being funny. The actual combined postseason experience of the Canucks line that tied up the game is 219 games. And just the 3 you alluded to had 60 combined.

    Nashville wasn’t able to get any screened shots in the 3rd, most were perimeter because Van held their structure to keep it 3-1.

    One thing I haven’t heard from Nashville fans … comments on some of the dirty plays made by Sissons and O’Reilly.

    What did you think of that non-call? Sissons tackled Joshua’s head in the first. No call. O’Reilly at 18:46 in the 3rd made a blatant attempt to injure or 3rd-string goalie because somehow became so weak his left leg kicked out from under himself as he tripped Silovs inside the blue.

    My take is this. Nashville can come back in this series if they stop playing dirty and just play hockey. They have the talent to do it. We’ll see if they have the will.

  3. Canucks play a patient game. Preds wasted to much energy shutting down Hughs. Preds should have taken last game but Canucks team played a patient game and waited for Preds to make a mistake. Preds were baffled when tied up and shocked. For Preds to win, they should just play their game and not waste energy going after players! Come on! Do 2 Preds need to smash Hughs? Canucks see that and will adjust! Karma got the team back for the Kick in goal 😂 shouldn't have counted! That got the Canucks going! Slapping Petterson down by 3 Preds wasn't very classy either!

  4. Funny to hear Ann say "VAN-coo-ver" instead of "VANG-coo-ver", I take our regional dialect for granted.

  5. The sad part is the preds need to show up for 60 minutes , but the Canucks need only need to show up for 4 minutes and win a game.

  6. I have bad memories of 2003-2004 Andrew Brunette leading the Minnesota Wild back from 3-1 down to smash the Vancouver Canucks in 7 and then smashing them in Game 7 in Vancouver. I could see it happening again. They need to put the Preds away in 5 or you could easily get back in the series.

  7. Perhaps Nashville could spend less time hammering the opposition players, and start playing the game of putting the puck in the net. Just a thought.
