Hockey fan from San Jose, currently living in the cold north. I love all things hockey but I like to cover the Nashville Predators. If you want numbers and graphs, I'm your guy.

Evander Kane's Stats Look Promising

Evander Kane's Stats Look Promising

June 3rd, 2018 Contracts are weird, eh? League-dominating guys like David Pastrnak sign team-friendly deals while some guys get vastly overpaid for no reason. I think you'd be hardpressed to find someone who says that Evander Kane is being underpaid, as most people agree he's either paid correctly or, in fact, overpaid. $7 million per year for seven...
'Nashville Predators Only' NHL Awards

'Nashville Predators Only' NHL Awards

May 30th, 2018 The Nashville Predators were the cream of the NHL's crop during the regular season but ultimately fell short during the playoffs. That doesn't diminish their regular-season prowess, where many players stepped up. Some Predators deserve to be recognized for their career years, and while they may not win any NHL awards, we should take a...
How the Jets Beat a Better Predators Squad

How the Jets Beat a Better Predators Squad

May 18th, 2018 The Nashville Predators' season fell short by a few rounds as the Winnipeg Jets vanquished them in seven games. There were many reasons why the chips fell as they did, but I wanted to highlight a few of them. A lot of these reasons were present through the season but were covered by the immaculate goaltending of Pekka Rinne. The defense...
'San Jose Sharks Only' NHL Awards

'San Jose Sharks Only' NHL Awards

May 15th, 2018 The San Jose Sharks's season ended a few weeks earlier than they would've preferred, but this year shouldn't be seen as a negative. Many young players took the next step, aging stars showed that they could still compete, and the goaltending held up through most of the season. There are quite a few questions that will need to be answered...
Predators Preyed Upon by Stastny

Predators Preyed Upon by Stastny

May 11th, 2018 Game 7 ended the way it began for the Nashville Predators and their fans, in heartbreak. Pekka Rinne had a rough first few minutes and spotted the Jets a two-goal lead. Predators head coach Peter Laviolette then made the call to pull the veteran and put in 23-year-old Juuse Saros. He kept his team in the game until about halfway...
Dominant Forsberg Carries Predators to Game 7

Dominant Forsberg Carries Predators to Game 7

May 9th, 2018 It was do or die on Monday night and when their backs were against the wall, the Nashville Predators came out swinging. More specifically, Filip Forsberg showed up in a big way. The first line was producing but each member had a specific role in powering the Predators to force a Game 7. Viktor Arvidsson was buzzing around the net and...
Sharks Blue Line Comes up Big in Game 4

Sharks Blue Line Comes up Big in Game 4

May 3rd, 2018 Game 4 at the SAP Center was nerve-racking for fans. The series was at 2-1 in favor of the Vegas Golden Knights going into the game and the San Jose Sharks hadn't dominated for an extended stretch of any game. The prospect of dropping both games at home was a scary one, and the idea of heading back to Vegas with their backs against the...
Sharks Hanging Martin Jones out to Dry

Sharks Hanging Martin Jones out to Dry

April 30th, 2018 It's common knowledge that great goaltending can win a series. Sometimes all it takes is a goalie to stand on his head, a la Jaroslav Halak in the 2010 playoffs, and sometimes it's a team effort where the defense forms an airtight seal around the net. Martin Jones hasn't been exceptionally sharp all season long and the playoffs haven't...
