What Doomed the Predators in their 5-2 Loss to Tampa Bay?

The Nashville Predators headed to Tampa Bay to take on the Lightning last night, but even with the cheers of the Preds' dads along Nashville couldn't get the win. On today's Locked On Predators, Ann breaks down the game and shares her "one word" to describe the 5-2 loss. In a game that at times looked winnable, what eventually doomed the Preds? We'll tell you three things that led to the missed opportunity for Nashville. After working all season to be a bigger offensive factor, Alexandre Carrier finally got his first goal last night. We'll share why that moment meant more than just a tally on the stats sheet. Ryan McDonagh returned to Tampa Bay and received a heartfelt welcome and thanks from the Lightning fans. We'll give you an update on his condition and talk about how his absence is affecting the Preds. Finally we look ahead to tomorrow afternoon's match up against the Ottawa Senators. What do the Preds need to do to come away with two points, and why is a game against a 10-14-1 team a MUST WIN for Nashville? Finally we share our keys to the game on today's Locked On Predators podcast. BetOnline Today's Episode is brought to you by BetOnline.
