]]> The Nashville Predators played their hearts out in game Six of the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs last night hoping to force a Game 7 in Vancouver, British Columbia.  The Vancouver Canucks scored two early 1st Period Goals to take a quick 2-0 lead.  The Preds bounced back early in the 2nd period to pull 2-1 and Bridgestone Arena was rocking.  As hard as the Predators tried to score on Power Plays the Canucks Defense was just too much to overcome.  As the Vancouver Canucks celebrated their Stanley Cup Series win the Nashville Predator Fans stood and gave their much loved Preds a standing ovation for a great season.  This marked the first time in Predator history that a team had advanced to the 2nd round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.  It also marked the first time the Preds had won an elimination game in game 5.  It’s great to be part of something as special as the Nashville Predators.  We all know this is just the beginning of bringing a Stanley Cup Championship to Nashville someday soon!  Great Job Preds!

]]> WAY TO GO PREDSSSSS!!!! Last nights Nashville Predators vs Dallas Stars game was awesome. The Bridgestone Arena was rocking.   The Nashville Predators was pumped up from the win against Anaheim Ducks and it definitely carried over to last night.  This was a major needed win for making the NHL Playoffs and the boys got it done again.  I thought Mike Fisher stepped up his game last night even before he scored.  I do not think he is the only answer to our prayers but he brings a lot of intensity, leadership, and momentum to the hockey game.  He makes a lot of other things happen to help Kostitsyn and others get the puck in the net.   Pekka Rinne is definitely one of the best goalies in the National Hockey League right now.  His spectacular play and efforts for our Nashville Predators has to have other teams fearing him.  I hope he can uphold his role deep into the NHL playoffs.  I have been a Predators season ticket holder since Day 1 and have watched a lot of players (good, average, poor) come and go, and as I don’t want to get my hopes up too high, I think this 2010-2011 Predator team including the injured players are one of the best overall teams in the Nashville’s NHL history. Every player from defense to offense has contributed in many areas this entire Hockey season.  The young players such as Jonathon Blum, Nick Spalling and Blake Geoffrion have adapted to NHL play very well.  Their intensity and excitement has pumped up the veterans like David Legwand, Joel Ward and Patrick Hornqvist.  I am very excited for our Nashville Predators playoff run and hope they carry this intensity to Tuesdays game against Vancouver Canucks.
