Boyd off the post
He has come close so many times but still no goal as a Pred. Is tonight the night?
Great job by Wilson there!
Blocking a shot up high like that can turn into a great chance…

Some needs to tell Wilson he's a predator
he has no business burying a breakaway

Dumont with another!
Enjoying this game so far
by Great Paperclip on Mar 18, 2010 8:22 PM EDT reply actions
he's looked pretty good tonight
I’ve been feeling for him. He’s been ringing the post lately. An assist will do for now

Can't let up...
They got the early lead on Philly and let them back in it….

Good for Zanon getting his big contract, but Bouillon’s a fine replacement.

Rinne....
Rinne’s glove is looking as sharp as I’ve ever seen it. Really starting to show swagger.

Maybe Harding thought he had trapped Wilson’s shot. Either way, looking good after the first.

Good things happen when you throw the puck on net!

What's that old saying?
You make 100% of the shots you don’t miss?

Have been listening to the games...
…on the computer from FL hotel room (on vacation). Second game in a row in which the “listen” link at the Preds’ site keeps cutting out, and I’m having to listen from the Wild link (with their announcers). Just heard “…hard to come back from a three-goal deficit on the road!” Will admit that the first thing that popped into my head was “Yeah, well….” Hope he was right, though; have to love the win streak!
i have had problems with that link before.but the web feed for 104.5 the zone usually works a lot better. but is sometimes buffered a bit.
Have you tried 104.5’s website? You can listen there. Not sure if you’ll have the same problems though.
by jerseypredsfan on Mar 18, 2010 8:54 PM EDT up reply actions
Yeah!
Sounds much better. The link at Wild’s site was cutting out a little, but not nearly as bad as at Preds.com. Also better than listening to Wild announcers.
checking in from section 118
Monster game so far. Now, if they’ll play 40 minutes of hockey, I’ll be happy. Wilson is insane good tonight.

Well, he is playing with a broken nose. That can’t be fun.

Harding robbed Bouillon
Great board work by Wilson and great pass to Bouillon though. Just a great save by Harding.

legwand
that is why he doesn’t score. he doesn’t have a lot of offensive help. i wish boyd would take smithsons place.
this is weird
I clicked on the Wild’s SB Nation link to see what they were saying about the game. They had nice things to say about Dirk and the “On the Glass” people. Went back to cut and paste the comments here, but now, I can’t find them anywhere!
Horn Dog!!
5 – 0, is that free frosty time?
by jerseypredsfan on Mar 18, 2010 10:07 PM EDT reply actions
It’s definitely better for the heart. These are games that the Preds should win and it’s nice to see them doing it convincingly.

Rinne 2 SO in last 4 games
This bodes well.
by jerseypredsfan on Mar 18, 2010 10:28 PM EDT reply actions
Rinne's back
(knock on wood) this is what this team needed. a game proving the goaltending quality, then a game proving team ability in offense and defense.
8 SOG against in the last 2 periods. Thats awesome
by jerseypredsfan on Mar 18, 2010 10:31 PM EDT up reply actions
if things ended now the Preds would face the Blackhawks in the first round. No thankyou. Go Chicago.
by jerseypredsfan on Mar 18, 2010 10:49 PM EDT up reply actions
yeah i don’t want that. but i hate rooting for central division teams…. if they just lose every game we might not have to.
I'm in Chicago!

That's great, make it a FanShot if you can

did he say nhl teams?
or just teams? cause he has been on a lot of different hockey teams in his life time… just sayin’ maybe that was how he meant it
favre, jackson, rosenfels, the tooth fairy... i don't care, just give me a Super Bowl!
He probably meant lots of different Preds teams
They’ve changed a lot over the last several years.

that's another way he could have meant it...
thanks, it’s a great blog… i’m pretty sure i found it during the olympics when i couldn’t find out who was playing who in the playoff round even though i’ve lived in nashville most of my life and love the preds

This is a good place to go for any Pred fan. Welcome to the site.

Legwand
I was lucky enough to sit right behind the bench tonight and Leggy went to the dressing room at about 3:00 remaining in the 3rd. I didn’t hear anything on the post-game radio show, and he was kinda limping around like it was a stinger.
Any news?
great game tonight!
when our skilled players are finishing we can be a dangerous team… too bad we don’t get to see it happen more often. : /

Game thoughts
Preds played really well tonight. AWE line was clicking. Toots line had some real action tonight. JP must have had his Wheaties, he was wheeling most of the night, which is good to see. D didn’t give up much, only 17 shots, so you know they were doing there job. Weber had the worst turnover of the night – right in front of Pekka. That must make Kleinhammer feel better. Wilson and Horny continue to impress. Boyd was outstanding. Leggy made some great plays and Ward was freaking superman out there. Let’s keep it going!!!
found it
Kind words about On the Forecheck and Preds on the Glass at Wild’s site (cut and pasted what follows):
Game Day Enemy Perspective:
The Tennessean – Good luck.
On the Forecheck – SBN blog, and all around good people.
Preds on the Glass – You want to talk about good people?Head over here and read their stuff. Two of my favorite people in all of hockey.
