  1. Hellefraud? Jesse is also the guy who said the Jets would finish below 95 points and Hellebuyck would be under .920 sv. If Jesse says something is up bet money that it is actually down.

  2. They got hot down the stretch last year to make the playoffs and it tricked management into thinking they're closer than they actually are. Add a bunch of flashy names without much thought for roster construction on top of a team that isn't as good as they think it is and voila!

  3. in The words of Herb Brooks "All Star Teams fail because they solely rely on the Individuals talent" The Predators were an All-Star Team . Anyways Go Avs Go /Fly Together.

  4. It's almost as if 30 plus year old players tend to decline in relying on them to stay good is unwise…

  5. As a Preds fan, this season has certainly sucked, but I put more blame on Brunette than I do Trotz. Bruno’s “system” is hot garbage and he has admittedly “no answers” for how to fix this team. Our prospects and future is looking good, but we’ll see going forward. I really hope we have a good draft this summer.

  6. I have been a Preds STH for 25 years now, and I've not seen anything like this in some time. Trotz inherited a franchise that couldn't scout, draft, or cultivate prospects and it's evident in each of those first round picks from 2016-2020. They've always struggled to attain forwards especially with few exceptions. He undervalued Duchene and unceremoniously ousted him. Then passed on players that struck me as classic Trotz guys like Jason Zucker. I don't blame him for spending big in the off-season to bolster a team that was 10th in GF last season, but the asset management thereafter has been asinine as can be. 😒 This may determine hockey for the next decade here in Nashville.

  7. Of course, it’s hard to be a worst team. Bruno needs to go! I watched the Florida and preds game in Nashville and Florida skated circles around them.
    This is what happens when you don’t take out the clear garbage and hire an actual coach that has more experience.

  8. Just a reminder, Hellebuyck has been to the conference finals. Was it a long time ago? Yes. Was it more recent than the Leafs have been past round 2? Also yes.

  9. From a Preds fan, the bigger issue has been more around a roster construction and coaching mismatch. Burnette's system has worked as we saw it work last year and when he was coach in Florida. The difference is that with Nashville's current roster, they don't have the speed to play Burnette's system. I saw something that showed Nashville as the 3rd slowest team in the league, and Burnette's system puts that lack of speed on full displag when you look at the defensive numbers since Burnette's systems wants to heavily involve the defense in offense. Add in that Burnette would throw the team into a line blender the second anything went wrong, and the only constant the team has had has been inconsistency. It would seem a coaching change happens during the off-season, but no one has any idea who is going to come in and be the new coach at this point.

  10. As a Blues fan I’m loving this run. It deff feels like 2019! But we’re younger! I feel like this Blues team is here for awhile.

  11. It's been a while since there's been a video on the Preds, was wondering why there wasn't more coverage. Absolutely blew my mind with their performance. Was expecting them maybe getting to the Western Conference finals

  12. As a Tampa fan the downfall of Stamkos in Nashville showed that JBB did the right thing in Tampa. Would have loved stammer to stay but they approved tbeir roster even more without the 3 million cap space

  13. As a preds fan, if we snagged up Montgomery when we had the chance I think we could've righted the ship. But also I'm ok with the results this year. Getting likely a top3 minimum top 5 god forbid preds luck drops us below that. I'd kill to have any of Misa, Hagens, maybe shaefer if he drops low enough (doubtful)

  14. Ryan O Reilly is really over the hill and people need to stop assuming he's this Goliath difference maker. Stamkos was a good signing but without complimentary players, he can't do a whole lot.
