Game 7 Practice Update: Just Win, Baby
One more time for all the (first round) marbles.
There was a certain looseness to the Predators this morning. What Game 7? https://t.co/hLzbpQfcL9

You know what? I feel a certain looseness, too. Don't get me wrong...I'll be EXTREMELY upset by a loss. I just don't think one is coming. Don't know why.
Cody Bass, lower-body injury, does not appear to be on the ice for #Preds morning skate. #NSHvsANA

Bass, if you remember, gave himself a stiff ride in and around the hard areas early in Game 6.
Also, Craig Smith is flying up and down the ice this morning. Looks a lot better than he did in Game 6. #Preds #NSHvsANA

Hey...great news! Craig is apparently The Straw That Stirs The Drink, so we need him at full speed.
Tonight is the first Game 7 in @PredsNHL history. @jrlind is your guide: https://t.co/E963yQkI6z

"[Getzlaf] continues his transition into an anthropomorphized Applebee's happy hour."
I have nothing else to add to that. Speaking of the Ducks...
Asked Bruce Boudreau what he did last night to relax. He said, "paced" and "didn't sleep a lot."

Good, good.
The Ducks' two wins in their seven Game 7s have been by 3-0 scores. Who pitched the shutouts? Guy Hebert and Ilya Bryzgalov.

OH GOD PLEASE START BRYZGALOV.
Facing another Game 7 at home, Ducks hope they've learned lessons from past failures https://t.co/bnrDoGwS6a

I think they should try it one more time just to be sure they've learned everything possible.
Bruce Boudreau said Clayton Stoner will tell him how he feels and whether or not he can play tonight. But he just told us he's all good.

So there you go.

I know which one I'd pick.
See you on the other side, folks...
