Nashville Predators Must Do Three Things to Make Late Playoff Push Plus Western Conference Wednesday

The Nashville Predators sit just outside the playoffs but Juuse Saros, Roman Josi, Matt Duchene, and some exciting young players could still make a late postseason push.Today we talk about the three things that MUST happen if the Predators want to play postseason hockey. Then we break down the teams in the Western Conference - are the Colorado Avalanche, Vegas Golden Knights, or Dallas Stars most likely to win the West? After the start of Nashville's "reset", a new looking Predators team finds themselves still able to chase a wildcard spot into the playoffs. On today's Locked On Predators, Nick and Ann share the three things that absolutely must happen if the Preds want to play some extra hockey this spring. Which players are key to making a late playoff run and what is the one area the team has to continue to execute well to collect those important late season points? Then we take a look at the playoff picture in the West. We sort the Western Conference teams into four tiers - Cup Contender, Dark Horse, Just Happy to Be Here, and Not This Year. We tell you what offseason acquisitions aren't paying off for the Calgary Flames, if Eeli Tolvanen and the Seattle Kraken are the real deal, and why the Colorado Avalanche still give us playoff nightmares.
