Looks like it will be starting on the 21st rather than the previously reported 23rd due to both teams complaining.
Otherwise on paper, seems like the best possible matchup for the canucks (swept the regular season series). Though looking at advanced stats for the games, Nashville actually had a higher expected goal for the games and the canucks were quite successful on the powerplay in the games played between the teams. Given our shooting percentage has gone down in the last few weeks and our PP has stalled, hard to say how this series will go, to be honest.
Nah, playoffs are a different breed. Nashville has plenty of EX..Say what you want about the Preds potentially beating us, but these stupid cliches like "Grit and Heart" are not a valid reason. We literally won our division, the Preds are a wild card, we're 3-0 H2H vs the Preds on the season, and the reason why the Preds beat the Canucks is "Grit and Heart"?
Predators in 5. Canucks aren't ready for playoff hockey, don't see their core players responding well to tight checking games.
Nashville are a 500 hockey team that had an 18 game point streak mid-season and Vancouver has been consistently good from start to finish.
Canucks win this easily and are the better team by far.
Canucks in 4.
Welcome neutral fan!As a Devils fan, this is my favorite series as a neutral. Quinn Hughes v Brunette.
Like I said. Nashville is average.Nashville is 6th in the league in points% since Nov 15.
67 games in that span, which is over 80% of the season.
I'd say that's more than just one hot stretch.
No fan on any team, including my own, wants to hear any version of that song as a goal song. There have been a few discussions on goal songs on the Canucks forum.I wanna hear a country version of Don’t You Forget About Me played as the Preds goal song in this series.
Welcome neutral fan!
Could you expand on this? Legit not sure what you are referring to.
Not even a single Nashville fan has posted in this thread so far. It's been nothing but Canucks fans and a few neutrals.Thank you for your neutral perspective on this issue. Lots of bias on both sides in this thread (especially Nashville fans), so it's good to see an objective opinion.
Correction. Canuck fans, a few neutrals and a few anything but neutral.Not even a single Nashville fan has posted in this thread so far. It's been nothing but Canucks fans and a few neutrals.
That's impressive! Didn't know their good form stretched that far back. Definitely not taking these guys lightly. I say it goes the distance - good guys in 7!Nashville is 6th in the league in points% since Nov 15.
67 games in that span, which is over 80% of the season.
I'd say that's more than just one hot stretch.
First off do you even watch Vancouver? They are the 4th best defensive team and 2nd 5on5.Predators in 5. Canucks aren't ready for playoff hockey, don't see their core players responding well to tight checking games.
It's such a cliche often used when said team is inferior, made even funnier since the nucks have tons of grit and the talent to match.Say what you want about the Preds potentially beating us, but these stupid cliches like "Grit and Heart" are not a valid reason. We literally won our division, the Preds are a wild card, we're 3-0 H2H vs the Preds on the season, and the reason why the Preds beat the Canucks is "Grit and Heart"?
I hate the Avs and most of ur fans are jerks but I'd never bet against Cale and Nate. The Avs also have the pedigree, while the jets and Helle don'tI would actually say the opposite in that COL/WPG series... Not that Helleybuck is good enough, but that Georgiev is bad enough.
I think Winnipeg wins that series in 5 or 6 games.
