The one thing that gives me hope for this game has been the Preds past ability to play their absolute best when their backs are against the wall. Not sure why they wait until then, but whatever works... Don't know if this current team has that capability, but we'll see... They're definitely gona have to stop passing the puck to the guys in the green jersey's if they have any shot... A part of me almost expects the Preds to barely win tonight, just to troll us into thinking their's a shot, only to lay a giant golden turd in the middle of Bridgestone Wednesday night.

Win or lose, I'd be happy just to see the Preds show some guts tonight... Show some pride and not let Dallas just roll over them like they have the past two games. If your seasons ends tonight at least go down fighting... That shouldn't be too much to ask for.

I told the kids that the Preds flag might be coming down tonight. My son says, "It's that bad?"

Yes.

I have more faith that my car will sprout wings and recite the Gettysburg Address in a Shakespearean accent through the tailpipe than I do that there will be a game seven.

Preds, prove me wrong.

So how's everyone doing minutes before puck drop. I will say Dallas scores first and then the wheels will fall off for Trashville. UNLESS this team comes in with a huge effort and brings it back for game 7.

BTW.... Anyone do a wellness check for Rash in his ass??? πŸ€”

You guy's can't even buy a power play goal. If it doesn't change soon... Well you know the fat lady is warming up.

If Nashville gets eliminated. Do you think Lavy will be shown the door or keep him for another year to see if anything changes.

Wow. Not everybody from Illinois is a jerk but this guy sure is. He apologizes on Easter but right back at it. So little respect for people like this.

Calm down Francis... I thanked Fox Mudler for the back and forth between us. And yes I did wish him a Happy Easter. How can that be interpreted as a apology. Stop acting like a jerk because I'm stating the obvious as much as I bust balls because of your resident Troll VopatsRash. I do appreciate a good team and as I have said before something is wrong with this Preds team. C'mon man you got a gift on a bull poop call and still cannot convert. 0-14 on the PP in the series and you expect to win...

If that is the case then one must think Poile should be on the hot seat also

Preds can’t get the job done in the playoffs despite an impressive regular season.

Some things never change.

A very entertaining 3rd period and OT. As much as the stripes tried to aid in getting a game 7, glad Dallas prevailed. The PP was absolutely awful for Nashville. A very overrated team. STL and DAL will be a fantastic series.

Wonder if Paul has the stones to post anything in the coming days....probably not.

.....looks like you still can't buy a drink in Nashville.....at least in until next year!

Thank Gawd. Hate to say it glad they are out, to much stress to enjoy watching the game when you dont know which team will be there, either the good team or the really really bad one.

I felt for Pekka he deserves so much better, his team mates let him down..
I feel for the fans b/c the team didn't play for them.

I expect next year to be a rebuild year.
Please get rid of Ekholm, Turris and Hammy.

I guess I'll root for Vegas despite their awful introduction with the Russian skater dude in a really lame suit of Armour...

It hurts we are out, but there is no other game like it on this planet....that overtime was insane.

Congrats Dallas, you earned it. Good luck the rest of the way.

And just how many Cups does Nashville have???? I'll take nearly a decade of outstanding hockey....the downturn is inevitable....especially in a cap restricted environment....I gladly accept the last 2 seasons of mediocrity for 3 Cups! I know you can't comprehend this, but it's ok. Now you have plenty of time to catch up on your movies. Maybe start with Slapshot!

"Glad they are out"? Fair weather fan at it's finest! Had they won tonight...which they could have.....and let's say they win game 7 (home ice....pretty good odds), and they won....would you have come back and said this is the greatest team? Probably!

So now you want a rebuild...what if they miss the playoffs next season...then what do you say? Personally.....I'd start with PK....IMO he's a locker room divider (strictly as an outside observer). He doesn't realize there is no "I" in team. There is a very good nucleus in Nashville...no doubt. Does Lavy go....maybe. As someone else stated here, all coaches have a shelf life...then they get recycled. Looking at Nashville this year in both regular and playoff seasons....there was a lot of resemblances to Chicago's last 2 seasons. Just sayin'....be careful what you wish for....a complete rebuild is not necessary....just tweeking....but what that will look like is anyone's guess.
