Series Thread: First Round - Vancouver Canucks vs. Nashville Predators

[BGDave]

The last I heard is that the series will start on Sunday, the 21st. Not sure if that is 100% set in stone, though.

1 - Apr 21
2 - Apr 23
3 - Apr 26
4 - Apr 28
5 - Apr 30
6 - May 2
7 - May 4

Could work but risks delaying the entire playoffs. Kind of a moot point, Preds will be golfing by May Day.

I think they're planning on a Sunday doubleheader with the Jets - Avs being the early game.

lol - Yes, it's certainly true that I like to point out egregious officiating errors and in my opinion at times these errors have a direct impact on the outcome of games. Good teams often still find a way to win, but depending on when the error occurs, sometimes they don't have enough time left on the clock.

I was talking about @Comeds Sheesh it's not all about you dash

In all seriousness the Canucks have never been able to overcome bad officiating

Not sure why you are ducking.
All of us Canuck fans have seen this show many times before.

And Preds are the 3rd hottest team since the all star break. Canucks are mid-pack... 12th I think.

Should be a good series. I think the Canucks are the better team but I just get a bot of that vibe where they're a good young team facing true expectations for the first time.

At the same time I think the Preds may not have much left in the tank. They played playoff hockey basically for 6 weeks.

Maybe Kenny is just doing pre-emptive ducking based on Canucks playoff history?!?

 

[mattola]

so it is possible to lose a series in less than 4 games

This might just be enough to counter the godawful video above...

Matty sliding across the ice at the end of the video always cracks me up
