    holy crap! the extra point is up and good.

    I was saying something like this to my son when they scored that 7th goal, he looked at me blankly.  Finally a nice easy non stressful game.  It has been a while.

    why do guys want to fight when they're getting their asses kicked? I would want to get the fuck off the ice.
    I know you are new to Hockey, bud.  When you are getting drilled is when you must fight in a series.  You need to send a message and make sure it is heard.  Never back down!

    When the NHL gave Nashville of all places a team, I gave them 15 years max before they relocated.  I was wrong.  Nashville has become a true hockey city

    Yeah, their crowds have just been getting better and better.  It's great to see.

    C'mon Sens,  take it 7
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Sens still have a shot.  Game 7s are just the best.
    Preds/Sens -- something that the NHL would hate but hard core fans would love. 

    Wobbie -- would very casual fans enjoy a team missing their best player VS a team whose best player is a D-man?
    Neither team has lifted a cup and they have 1 SCF appearance between the two of them in that scenario.
    **This is with the current iteration of the Sens.  The original Sens won lots of cups.**

    So the Senators had an elimination game in the conference finals and it wasn't sold out?!?!?  Crazy.

    The crowds have always been lively and great, just not as much recognition across the country as they have gotten this year. They did struggle with sellouts during the regular season for the first 10 years, but the the playoffs have always been a sellout. This year, for the first time ever, they sold out every single home game during the regular season and during this playoff run, this city has fully embraced the Preds. as a day 1 fan of this team, it's awesome to see. Hell, my mom is excited and she knows nothing about hockey.

    I've been to hundreds of sporting events in my life, but the atmosphere in Bridgestone Arena for playoff hockey is unreal. I don't know if the Preds will win it all or not, but it's been one hell of a ride and this city couldn't be prouder

    From the perspective of this Blackhawks fan, it's awesome to see Nasvhille fully embrace hockey the way they have!

    thanks. I grew up a Blackhawks fan as they were really the only hockey team that was shown around here on WGN back in the day. But made the switch when the Preds came to town. It has been an up and down 18 years, but this is making it all worth it. I've never been a season ticket holder since I've been a Titans season ticket holder for 12 years and couldn't afford to do both, but I went all in and signed up for 3 years worth of season tickets the other day just because. lol

    I was one who detested the idea of hockey in Nashville.  Was hoping they moved.  Couldn't imagine people would embrace it.  

    I was wrong... I took notice a few years ago that they had good support and a lively crowd...

    I will be curious to see what happens when/if the team goes on the downturn.  Will people continue to support it?

    That sounds similar to what happened in Carolina. When I moved there in 2010 the fans were declining after being all into it after the cup in 06. Fans kept dwindling (big thanks in part to horrible management). But the true hockey fans remain. I think everyone is gonna be real surprised with Carolina next year, especially if they pick up  2 or 3 solid offensive guys.
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    I'm interested to see what happens with that too. There are a LOT of fairweather fans in this area. I think if the Preds could survive the first 10 years with only diehard support and a threat of moving to Hamilton, they'll be ok. They'll lose some fans with a few bad seasons, but as long as they don't tank completely, they should be fine. They've also got a lot of great young players on this team which should help. I feel as long as David Poile and Sean Henry are running this team, they're in good hands
