You know it's all around the league right now ? the Predators are playing teams that are not in the playoffs. They should walk in. Honestly, sometimes those are as hard as games against teams you're battling for playoff spots.
This is a team that has worked really hard to get to this point. Giant slalom is not our best event, so hopefully we can do much better in the slalom race.
It held up pretty good. I played as physical as I could ? I had some hits and took some hard hits. I had a one-timer shot that I got most of and it didn't hurt.
We showed we could play with them and score five-on-five, which was important. I don't know if it was a mental block or what, but it was good to get those. Guys were going to the net hard and it made a difference.
It all starts from the lyric with me. If I work really hard on the lyric and get it right, then it will tell me whatever else to do, where to go.
