Down South Hockey

Are the Nashville Predators for real, Did we not give Hynes enough time? With the team on a winning streak this close to the trade deadline do you buy, sell, or stand pat?

David and Nathan celebrate the demise of Tim Peel then talk about the upcoming trade deadline… what are the Preds going to do!? Oh yeah, and all that Central Division, Game Post-Postmortems, and talk about nasty beer…. lot of nasty beer!

The Predators come out of a rough week with points in the Central Division. David, JC, Mark, and Nathan play a game of Keep/Trade/Drop. What happens to the rookies once the vets get healthy?

Another week of the Nashville Predators leading from behind in the Central Division. Nathan, Mark, and JC discuss what the ESPN deal means for existing and new fans, Visit the Wheel of Justice, and discuss the youth movement on the team.

David, JC, and Mark bring ya the Central Division goodness, then some Post-Mortem bad-ness. The guys discuss Niederreiter’s hit on Saros, and then ask, “is it time for the rebuild to start yet!?”

David, JC, and Nathan are back with the Central Division Update, and Game Recaps for the week. They then ask if Rinne has reclaimed the starting job, If Tolvanen is off the taxi squad, and a painful one; what would you get back for a Forsberg trade?

David, Mark, and Nathan share their ideas: what has to change? What moves should the Predators make to salvage the season or start a much-needed rebuild? There’s no optimism in the answers… Or the Week Ahead.

David, Nathan, Mark and JC question GM David Poile’s abilities as Preds GM: Is he good, lucky, has the game moved on without him?

Dave, Nathan bring JC up to speed on the amazing comeback vs. the Panthers! What does this mean for the lowly Central Division Preds? What’s the biggest surprise & disappointment so far. Is JOFA still a thing?

Nathan, Mark and JC are here with the Central standings ever (the Preds in first?), hate on NBC broadcasters, then preview upcoming games.

We had Discord issues (again) which cut out more of our discussion. We’ll be back at 100% next episode!

We’re doing some remodeling here at DSH with a new logo… but still here with the hockey news you expect: Central Division standings, game reactions, talk about our expectations for the team, then prepare for another week of Preds hockey! We did have some audio issues and have done our best to minimize the listening experience.

Lets just jump right in shall we? David and JC cover all the topics: Departures, trades, free-agent signings, oh… and still manage to cover other happenings around the NHL.

David, Mark, JC, and Nathan react to the Predators series loss to the Arizona Coyotes; a WAY too early look at the roster, lottery predictions, and a look back at a frustrating season of hockey.

The Predators are in the Edmonton bubble preparing for the Qualifier Round versus the Arizona Coyotes. Nathan and Dave take a look at the schedule, stats and rosters. With a four month layoff, this is an entirely new session where anything can happen!

Hockey’s happening for real: David, Nathan, & Mark are still around to tell you WHEN hockey starts back up, we dive into the new Collective Bargaining Agreement, and then take a look at whose on the Pred’s playoff roster.

We’re back after an extended pause on the 20-21 NHL Season. Lets talk the playoff structure, a proposed schedule for returning to play, then “Big Brain Dave” breaks down the NHL Draft.

David, JC and Nathan just don’t know anymore. The Preds are still unpredictable and will show they want in the playoffs one game, then will not show up in games they should win. We discuss what the team must do to make the playoffs, then ask if we should focus on statistics as much as we do.

When you don’t have power for a few days you can’t edit & release a podcast episode. Here’s the discussion Mark, JC, and Nathan had onepisode 19: Should there be reviewable penalties in the NHL? What would this look like realistically.

Nathan and David are back as the Nashville Predators are one point out of a wildcard spot, “do they really want it!?” Then we discuss the Rocco Grimaldi signing and trade deadline dud.

After last week’s tech fail we’re back discussing Granlund, Turris, and possible trade scenarios with a look at previous acquisitions. Are the Predators buyers or sellers at the deadline? There are three games left to make the call!

David does his best to keep the podcast positive as Mark, JC, and Nathan move closer to the ledge. Oh yeah, there’s some Big Body Tinordi action from Mark.

JC is down in the dumps about the Preds season and Nathan keeps preaching patience– who is right?!? Who’s under-performing, do we have time to right the ship, will we will be sellers at the trade deadline?

Ready for some knee jerk reactions to John Hynes? Seriously, we take a look at the first three games with Hynes behind the bench and give our initial thoughts. Then, a quick preview of upcoming Preds games.

We had this big mid-season episode planned then David Poile fired Peter Laviolette. We recap our Winter Classic experience. Then, like everyone else in the past 12 hours, we discuss the change and how this affects the Predators going forward.
