Predators split the road trip, but the story goes deeper—heartbreak in LA, a statement shutout in Anaheim, and now a massive playoff showdown ahead. All that and more, on this episode of 901 PuckMedia—your No. 1 hockey podcast in Memphis and the Mid-South. Hello guys. Welcome back to another episode of 901 PuckMedia. In this episode, I break down the Nashville Predators’ back-to-back road set as they go 1–1 against the Los Angeles Kings and Anaheim Ducks, and what it means for their position in the NHL playoff race. From a hard-fought shootout loss in LA to a dominant shutout win in Anaheim, there’s a lot to unpack as this team continues to battle for a Wild Card spot. We dive into what went right—and wrong—against the Kings, including strong defensive structure, standout goaltending from Juuse Saros, and big-time performances from Steven Stamkos and Roman Josi. But despite doing a lot well, Nashville struggled with possession, offensive pressure, and costly turnovers that ultimately made the difference in a tight game. Then we shift to a statement 5–0 win over the Ducks, highlighted by Juuse Annunen’s incredible shutout performance and elite special teams execution. Even while being heavily outshot, the Predators showed efficiency, resilience, and a completely different offensive approach compared to the previous game—proving they can win in multiple ways as the stakes get higher. Plus, I preview the Predators’ upcoming matchup against the Utah Mammoth as the playoff race heats up, and touch on key NHL playoff implications around the league.
