I’m so proud of my preds I feel like that year was done for my papa, he was one of the biggest predators fans I had even seen, he took me and my little brother to games when we were little and about a month before the playoffs started he passed away from cancer and every time I watch highlights from the 2017 playoffs it makes me think of him having to go through all the ups and downs with this team and then not make it to the most historic run a team has ever went on. I wish he could have made it for it.
6:50 Peter Laviolette: Won a cup with the Canes and went six games in the Finals with the Flyers and Preds. Also Peter Laviolette: Fired and replaced by John Hynes.
Andrew Berman west side best side until Sydney is done lol. But I do miss him as a coach. I’m just sick of the same bullshit my guys do year in year out.
NBCSN announcer said, "3rd team since 1994 (when the 1 vs 8 seeding was implemented) to advance to the Stanley Cup Final as the lowest seed." CBC referenced Edmonton because it is Canada's broadcasting company, and they simply omitted that.
The Oliers did made the Cup Finals in '06 but not win it. LA in 2012 was the first ever #8 seed not only in the NHL but of the 4 major North American Sports Leagues to win the league(Stanley Cup) title. I admit I did not see game live due to the tragic events in Manchester. If true of this misinformation of #8 seeds making the Cup Finals, bad job By NBCSN and also the CBC/Rogers Sportsnet. And from this point forward, Bettman has been proven correct in a new hotbed in the US South for a hockey home, Nashville, TN has now been added. PS The NBCSN announcer on this game I think was Kenny Albert (son of NBA Basketball legendary Broadcaster Marv Albert.)
Something that I didn’t realize until now is that history almost repeated itself with the Ottawa Senators & Anaheim Ducks. It would’ve been their first time playing against each other since the 2007 Stanley Cup Finals.
And what did we get instead of Nashville vs Ottawa? Nashville vs Pittsburgh Well at least the Preds won their first cup- nope, Pittsburgh ruined that too.
i hate to break 420 comments but yeah as a leafs fan i cant help but love the Preds, they take on guys that are deemed as problems and show them off as winners. they've had the same General Manager the entire time which shows extremely honest and smart ownership. They play smart hockey, not too offensive to be good but not too defensive so that you fall asleep watching them. They don't play all that dirty, even against a ducks team that did, honestly super impressive. They have probably the most fun crowd I have ever seen and would love to go see a Preds game in my lifetime. By the way, thanks for stealing Subban from the habs ;)
Announcer said the last time an 8 seed made it to the Stanley Cup Final was Edmonton, who lost to Carolina...was he sleep in 2012, when 8 seed Los Angeles not only made the Final but won it?
Poile's reaction at 1:05 = priceless! Thanks for all you've done to make this team what it is, David! BTW, Seventh Man is so fuckin loud it almost drowns out the tv announcers.
Man I still remember this day, I was 11 years old and the predators org. decided to put T.V.s outside and we didn't get tickets which was disappointing. I remember hearing the yells and cheers from outside and you could hear it. This was a good time for the Preds but they ended up choking in the end by a team that is better.
I love seeing all you happy predators fans from 6 months back, knowing that you guys lost in the Stanley Cup Final really puts a smile on my face :) maybe next year....lol
The penguins got help from refs. that goal should have counted and was not a quick whistle because the puck was still in play and visable! pittsburgh didnt deserve that cup final win and should have went back to shitsburgh for game 7.. just like anaheim, crosby and the pens need help to win anything in the nhl. pittsburgh has the worst fans anyway
Boston Bruins2011 this from a bruins fan that we have the WORST FANS but you guys cheer on Brad Marchand’s slew foots and also that was one goal and his foot was pass the line when he got it.
TheFocus UnTame I just got the notification and when I saw my reply I have no recollection of this comment what so ever. What I believe happened is Gerrid said something else that he now deleted and I said that was stupid, because calling a team stupid literally makes zero sense...
My family has Preds season tickets and my dad was at this game. And I remember having to stay home and study for exams wishing I was there the whole game.
It’s already been 4 to 5 years since this happened? Good god this feels like it happened yesterday… been such a roller coaster for my Preds since this. Time flies I guess.
Just gotta throw this out there: At 2:16 Järnkrok is hitting Silfverberg pretty hard. Those two played in the same in Brynäs when they won their last playoff in the SHL. Silfverberg was unstoppable that playoff-run och Järnkrok his right hand man.
TheWitchOvAgnesi this team plays nothing like a Trotz coached team. Trots always wanted to trap and slow the game down. This team is about speed attack and counter attack when the opponent makes a mistake
Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't the 2012 L.A Kings a 8th seeded team? According to my memory they won the Stanley Cup....again correct me if I'm wrong.
Looking back I hated the Ducks way more this year and liked the Preds way more than this year but I do feel bad for bieska as one if my favourite players when I began watching hockey in 2011 during the Canucks run to the finals
I've got a feeling that Nashville will be better this coming season, now I am a San Jose Sharks fan first and foremost, but why not cheer for such a great team like the Preds? I hope the Sharks and the Preds meet in the Conf. Finals and go seven games, that'll be sweet and fun to watch that's for sure
I don't know if it's just me, and I'm not trying to garner any hate, but does Nashville have the same cheer as Penn State Main hockey team? Because from what I've listened to it's very similar, if not the same. And being that Penn State has been up for longer, has Nashville stolen their cheer? Thanks- Alli
I thought of something. Imagine if the Ducks beat the Predators, and the Senators beat the Penguins. 10 year span of a 2007 Stanley Cup replay. I would’ve liked to see that.
Heyyyy YOU SUCK! Heyyyy YOU SUCK! Heyyyy YOU SUCK! We're gonna beat the hell out of you! You, you, you, you and you! Thank you Bernier! Can we have another?! He shoots, he scores, YOU SUCK! Bernier! Bernier! Bernier! YOU SUCK! It's all your fault! It's all your fault! It's all your fault!
The ducks may have controlled a lot of the play, but the fact is simply that they wouldn't have beaten the Oilers had there not been several questionable calls made. Even through all that, it STILL went to Game 7.
How can you say that for sure? The ducks were completely dominating the last few minutes of game 5 and were riding the momentum of 2 goals. perry got crosschecked in the face right before the oilers scored earlier in that same game no call so id say it's even. Oilers fans can bitch about the refs all they want but they LOST and there's no way anyone can predict what would have happened otherwise. Ducks were a more composed, deeper and experienced team. Even after a 7-1 loss in game 6 the ducks broke the game 7 curse.

But a true fan would probably at least wear a jersey to a conference final game. Just saying.
his reaction is why i sought out this version, i remember watching that live .. and Pet he has a preds shirt on.. find something else to criticize

6:50 Peter Laviolette: Won a cup with the Canes and went six games in the Finals with the Flyers and Preds.
Also Peter Laviolette: Fired and replaced by John Hynes.
He shouldn’t of been fired
I’m a flyers fan and I miss Peter Laviolette to this day.
William Murphy I’m a penguins fans and I know we shouldn’t get along *west side best side* but this I agree on
Andrew Berman west side best side until Sydney is done lol. But I do miss him as a coach. I’m just sick of the same bullshit my guys do year in year out.

"Last time an 8th seed climbed in was the Edmonton Oilers in 2006" so did the 2012 kings die or?

PS The NBCSN announcer on this game I think was Kenny Albert (son of NBA Basketball legendary Broadcaster Marv Albert.)
Tom Bauer i think he meant to say 16 seed overall. i believe the 8 seed in the east was lower in 2012 and they were bounced in the 1st round
Sominboy27 yeah the Kings were a 13 seed.
Sominboy27 NYR bounced 8th seed Ottawa that year
Watching this all over again brings back the same feelings as when I saw it live
The commentator must have been high. The last time an 8th seed made it was the LA Kings, not Edmonton
smh
Dodge it all BUT IT IS VERY RARE THAT EDMONTON DOES THAT YA KNOW
hes canadian lmao
In the Industry Actually he meant the last time an 8th seed made it to the finals and lost was the Oilers in 2006.
The Ducks starting fights with 6 seconds left shows how much class they have... absolutely none. Glad they lost.
Lowkey glad preds lost in the finals
Watson has tons of class beatimg up his GFs lmfao.
@XBOXRULES they lost in 6
someone2929 almost every team does that u don’t watch enough hockey
Andrew Ruggiero Even though she admitted she lied? Yeah thanks
Some of the best 2.5 minutes of my life.

This makes me wanna go to a predators game, the environment and support is unimaginable
Unfortunately after this game or playoff run rather it was never the same.
it’s amazing definitely recommend going the fans here are crazy
Tigerguy 101 It’s so good.
Its unbelievable, especially when the Blues or the Blackhawks are in town.
yotsubafanfan Straight facts.
From a Canucks/Jets fan, the Preds are an inspiration.
Lord Aurelius I'm a Canucks/Jets fan too and I love the Preds
You are a true hockey fan! I'm a Preds fan. I live in Nashville but to hear a fan from another team say this, YOU are an inspiration.
Lord Aurelius bandwagon !
Anthony de Guzman bandwagon
Canucks and jets? You pick one team and stick with it
Even though the Preds lost the finals to the Penguins, their playoff run was insane and likely will never be replicated again.
As Kevin Malone once said “Dude, you gotta believe.” 😂🙏
Lmao now looking at this comment is funny
The Panthers: Hold my beer.
Dude's reaction at 3:07 is every fan of every sport ever rolled into one

Lee Sapp Poile's reaction is great, but I love watching Coach Laviollete's reactions they're always my favorites.
I'm no Preds fan, but 7:30 gave me goosebumps. He's done such an awesome job recently with the Subban, Turris an Johansen trades
You know they were happy in the moment but the preds are so humble

The Predators can thank Barry Trotz for this. He molded the team into what they are today. Their system, their stance. All because of him
That isn't really true. Lavy plays a much faster game, that is why we shipped Weber for PK. We needed quicker skaters for the 1-3-1
Blah Blah exactly
Maybe from a defensive standpoint, but Trotzy would never have gotten the team this far.
