The Montreal Canadiens blew a 2-0 lead and lost 5-2 to the Nashville Predators thanks to costly mistakes late in the second and third periods. Nick Suzuki and Alex Newhook each scored to give the Canadiens a 2-0 lead early in the second period but a lack of focus from there saw the Canadiens unravel […]

Neither player was able to complete Thursday’s 5-2 win over the Montreal Canadiens.
First period
It’s a strong start to the game for Montreal as the top line gets the puck around the net, and the new-look second line puts it in it, a great play from Alex Newhook to carry the puck low in the zone, recover it after one chance and set up Chris Kreider.
The Predators challenge for offside, and it’s a quick review to see that Kreider had been in the zone ahead of the puck.
Montreal picks back up where it left off, with another high-danger scoring chance from Zacha...

It was a tough collapse Wednesday night in Toronto for the Nashville Predators. After skating out to a 3-0 lead, the Preds lost their footing, and the Maple Leafs soared back for a 5-4 overtime victory. Nashville has just seven goals total in their three games (and four of them came in last night's loss). Should the team start to question their direction as the season moves along, it's quite possible that new president of hockey operations and general manager Chris MacFarland could p...

After a couple of good results on the road to begin the season, the Montreal Canadiens returned home for a disappointing game at the Bell Centre. It wasn’t so much the end result of a 6-4 regulation loss that included an empty-netter, but how the team played in that defeat. The...

Pittsburgh will boost its defensive depth with the addition of Spencer Stastney, who played for the Predators and Oilers last season.
The first week of Gavin McKenna's NHL career was capped off with an impressive two-point effort against the Nashville Predators. Before his standout performance, the 18-year-old rookie already got the full up-and-down experience of playing hockey in Toronto.
The Nashville Predators (1-1-1) were very close to winning their road debut against the bulked-up Toronto Maple Leafs. They showed it early, taking a 3-0 second-period lead with a goal…
