The Predators' projected lineup:

Filip Forsberg-Ryan Johansen-Viktor Arvidsson

Colin Wilson-Mike Fisher-Craig Smith

Kevin Fiala-Mike Ribeiro-James Neal

Reid Boucher-Calle Jarnkrok-Austin Watson

Roman Josi-Ryan Ellis

Mattias Ekholm-Matt Irwin

Yannick Weber-Petter Granberg

Juuse Saros is projected to start in goal; Pekka Rinne would be the backup.

Healthy scratches could include Adam Pardy and Colton Sissons. P.K. Subban (upper body), Anthony Bitetto (hand) and Miikka Salomaki (lower body) are out.

Awesome that we get to face Saros for Nashville. Well not for the Blues really, he's been one of the best goalie prospects in the league for a while and I haven't gotten to see him play yet.

Blues have an early PP. Let's grab a 1-0 lead!

The fourth lines skating reminds me of McDonald for the speed they bring but Oshie for how often they fall on their asses.

Bananas

Another PP for The Blues! Will the 2nd be a charm? Let's open the scoring!

Ping

Parayko can't buy a goal. Or functional stick.

0-0 afta 1

0-0 After 1

Not a great 1st Period. The Blues got some good shots, but they had 2 power plays to zero. What bothers me is that they lost most of the races to the puck and the puck battles in their own end. They looked shaky there against The Preds' good forecheck.

Berglund is playing awesome on the forecheck. Just a matter of time before we pot one.

Fugg 1-0 Nash and the zebras have taken over.

This one went downhill quickly

Fugg again Nash/zebras 2 - Blues 0

Remember we have Tim Peel to look forward to in the Classic, guys

Welp we're getting manhandled right now physically

Was a good game till the stripes started inventing shit

Remember when Perron did that against the Islanders?


Games over by the way. 3-0 Sexual Predators/Zebraa

Haven't been able to catch any of the action but judging by the comments here, sounds like a frustrating game all around

Looks like The Blues were thinking ahead to The outdoor game, instead of concentrating on winning this one.

It wasn't til the second frame, 3 unanswered.
