Zadorov, Joshua and Miller all the best players so far.......all physical players.  

 

The highest paid player on the team next year by a long shot was one of the worst offensively.  How many giveaways did he have tonight too?

Not good not good.., something is so off with EP

Don't forget guys like Hogz, Mik, Lafferty etc. These supporting cast guys need to step up when the top guys are being shut down.

Don't know if Hogz even played in the 3rd.

 

I’m not gonna pile on Hoglander, this being his first playoff experience. Mikheyev doesn’t get a pass from me though. Lafferty is… Lafferty.

The hockey gods have been laughing in our faces for decades.  Just when we thought we had strength at all the key positions, we lose our goaltender to injury.  It's a fucking joke now.  Fuck the hockey gods.  

 

 

Let the excuses commence.

In 2011, preds also split the first two games and won game #2 in Vancouver.   

 

Nux took games 3 & 4 but lost game 5 at home again.  Then Nux win series in game 6 in Nashville.  

 

 

..And that Nash team was a 'stingier' Defensive team..I ain't worried!

DeSmith not my choice to start next game and the goal over his glove shoulder.... weak goal. 

 

Sauce backing up on that same goal...real boner there.  

 

Juulsen with 2 penalties in the playoffs is minor league play.

 

Hronek lacks initiative. 

 

And Petey... this kid is a lost cause. He has deep mental issues when it comes to confidence.

They're so predictable........Hughes to miller, miller to Hughes.......Hughes to petey, perry to Hughes.

 

Let QH skate around and put his skills to the best use.  Create some chaos and confusion right now.  They're incredibly easy to defend.

 

Gonna have to mix it up somehow, it's been cold to lukewarm for a while

Their coach Brunette just studied the tapes and saw the Canucks never go to the front of the net. For the most part the Canucks prefer to pass around the outside until one of them...finally....attempts a long shot through.  But because the Preds know the Canucks stay back they have plenty of time and room to get in front and just block, until they recover the puck themselves. Easy peasy.

 

Even a long shot by Hughes isn't as good as a close in the blue paint chance....by anyone! I'm not picky

top six ain't going. Bottom six ain't going. 

 

This team is sunk if they lose Game 4.

Not doing us any favours by spinning our wheels on the powerplay, we had plenty of opportunities but we ain't gonna get four powerplays every night 

 

PK was good on the other hand, but Nashville's powerplay didn't look all that dangerous 

This was probably the best night to cash in on them.

If we're going to win this series 1) DeSmith is gonna have to play lights out, 2) our stars need to shine

It's basically just a best of 5 series now.  Odds are still good.  They can adjust.

They’ve had 60+ games to adjust their PowerPlay since teams figured it out and they haven’t. Pettersson has had 8 weeks to figure out his slump and he hasn’t.
