]]> 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!

]]> The Nashville Predators tied up the game in the 3rd Period for the 2nd game in a row but could not get the win against the Vancouver Canucks.  A questionable penalty call against Shea Weber looked as though Ryan Kesler was holding Weber’s hockey stick under his arm.  Weber tried several times to pull his hockey stick out from under Kessler’s arm to no avail and was called for the penalty.  Kessler then scored the winning goal a few minutes later.  Here’s a youtube link showing the penalty call.  Shea Weber penalty on Ryan Kesler in Game 3 OT

Game 4 here in Nashville looks to be another close one goal game if both Pekka Rinne and Roberto Luongo continue their solid play.
