The Nashville Predators hoped to even up their first round series against the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday, but two late clutch goals by Brock Boeser and defensive breakdowns by the Predators handed the Canucks an overtime win and a 3-1 series lead. On today's Locked On Predators we take a hard look at an overtime loss that should have been a regulation win including our "one word" to describe the game. What went wrong in the last three minutes of the third period that cost the Preds their composure and ultimately the game? We hear from Roman Josi on how the locker room felt about the shocking loss and what the team's mindset has to be facing elimination on the road. Where do the Predators go from here ahead of Tuesday's night's game?

Total Karma for all the dirty things. Dont hit a player during a celebration, dont kick a puck in, dont cheap shot a goalie. The hockey gods have spoken! Go Canucks Go!
No kidding, greasy Nashville team playing with no honor, and a hillbilly, uneducated fanbase.
Ther are no hockey gods wackjob
Yes and can someone plz tell this thing Jay Leno called and wants his chin back ! Justin gaethje would kill for that chin right about now
Rope sales are going thru the roof in Nashville
@@Juniorjohn187 Keep it classy fellow Canucks fan.
Once the Canucks pulled the goalie it was if they were a different team. Their passing was suddenly crisp and they were winning all the battles to the puck.
I'm a diehard nucks fan but Nashville is a team I've always cheered for because Nashville is literally the only city I'd want to live in in the entire US. Love everything about the city and the preds fans are a great fanbase. I am impressed with how well you guys have clamped down defensively, completely shutting down Petey and despite Hughes getting points, you guys are the first team to actually wear him down and lay a body on him. The thing is tho with the nucks is we have a bunch of guys that don't need shot volume to score, we are real good at burying our chances and have won a lot of games while only getting a few high danger chances. With Demko out our team plays a much more conservative style so capatilizing on what chances we get is a must. I gotta say tho you guys should move Sarros for some more scoring punch and roll with Askorov, since I think Jussi has been trending down and so will his value.
That's the frustrating thing as a Canucks fan. Why can't we do this a lot more lol. When we make those crisp passes, it looks beautiful. When Sutter missed the basic open net in the second, I thought this was just not our game. It happens. It's crazy how fast momentum can change and how much it can affect a game
@@GR-bn3xj It's because with the man advantage they have all the time and space in the world. When it's even strength, then they have a harder time playing ugly to move the puck up the ice (only JT's line can do this).
Canucks fan here. Due to the Pred's relentless locking down of Vancouver's high-octane offense, the Canucks looked tired, lethargic, and hesitant for 57 minutes. The next 4 minutes, I don't know if it was the Canucks finding a higher gear, the Predators getting careless, or both, but Vancouver suddenly looked like an unstoppable juggernaut, winning a game they should and could easily have lost. Obviously I'm cheering for Vancouver, but Nashville - win or lose - should be proud of the Preds. Seeing them play in this series, I can see how they went on such a winning streak to end the regular season.
Another Canucks fan here. This 57-minute narrative is simply not true. Remember who scored first. I’m saying the Preds dominated for 37 minutes.
@@tygher at best it was an even first. So 37 minutes of domination and 20 minute draw is still not a good look for our Nucks. Glad we pulled it off.
@@danielpatterson5189 still not entirely accurate … the Canucks did put together some good shifts after the lucky 3rd goal against, trying to get their game going … I rewatched it to review the cheating/non-calls I thought I saw. The game wasn’t as bad as it felt in the moment. The cheating was worse.

What a comeback by the Vancouver Canucks! 🙌 Unbelievable game!
Canucks fan here. I actually love Ann’s commentary in this and other videos. As for the comeback win, we had no business winning that game and as special/fantastic as it was for Nucks fans, I also feel your pain. This series is far from over, so let’s just see where this goes…
Miracle win for Vancouver. The tying goal already felt like the game was over, the OT goal felt like the series clincher, but we'll see.
Massive respect for how the Preds played in games 3 and 4. In every aspect but the key moments the Preds dominated. I feel fortunate to win not just one but both of these games. You have a resilient bunch and this series isn't over. If Vancouver doesn't step on the Preds' throats in game 5 and put this away I could easily see this going 7. Hoping my team shows a killer instinct and puts you guys away right here and now.
Karma for running our goalie, running our backup goalie, and then slashing at the hand of our 3rd goalie. Trashville.
Ya . Hitting Petterson during goal celebration.. directing pucks with there skates. Having this thing reporting Should I go on
Good work Lauzon. You're a real cool guy, decking Petterson after the goal. The whole world thinks you're a champ. The officials have been doing everything they can to make sure the Preds win. Allowing a kick-in goal. Not penalizing hits on goalies, and players after the play is stopped. The Preds have even been outplaying the Canucks. But here the Preds are. They are absolutely destined to lose this series no matter what.
Justice. Karma. Couldn’t have happened to a better “Football” team. As a Canucks fan I’m happy, even though that was the worst playoff hockey game I ever saw. Loved the hitting. Hated the full head tackles that went un-penalized. Straight up would have changed this game if the refs called those correctly. Tackling and head locks during live play are straight up penalties. Can you legitimately disagree?
You're still losing in 7. Be better
@@wittybanter96 Okay.
@@LRon-Hoyabembe Typical Canucks fans. Enjoy Edmonton sweeping your poverty franchise, hopefully you wont riot and loot your city over losing in the playoffs again
Thanks Preds! Really appreciate your total and absolute collapse in the last 3 minutes!
If I wasn't such an avid Canucks fan for decades I would feel worse for your team than I do....and I do feel bad because you guys earned that win...alas poor Yorick!. You gave us so little until those last few minutes. Conversely, how many teams two down on the board would have already been already mentally back in the locker room under the circumstances. Two games north of the 49th now, what you guys got? Playoff hockey baby. GO CANUCKS GO!
As a Canucks fan, i feel lucky to be up 3-1. Nashville is a good team, but we have made plays when we had to. I Don't know if this is worse than the islanders being up 3-0 over the Hurricanes and losing, but it feels like it.
After blowing that game, the Preds need to suck it up and focus on not letting your great fans to have that ending as the last thing they experienced for an entire off season. Need a game 6 and a home win regardless of what happens in game 7.
@@LRon-HoyabembeThat's not happening. You'll be golfing soon
It was simple the Canucks never gave up. Their second goal and thr Preds fell apart.
Preds lost this game more than Vancouver won it
Haven't seen a collapse this bad since earlier in the season when the San Jose Sharks gave up a 4 goal lead to the Chicago Blackhawks in the 3rd period.
The reason why Preds keep losing is you guys keep saying “we had no business losing”
Crazy you guys are losing to the Canucks who are playing their worst hockey all season lol
Preds don't deserve to be in the playoffs
Honestly it looked like the coach told Canucks to conserve energy, and not get hurt cuz we're playing our third goalie just to rest DeSmith so we don't lose him for the playoffs. Let them have this one boys. Boeser then put his hand up in the third...uh..no coach, I think we're just gonna win this one...how bout you Lindy, what do you think? Yeah Bes, let's just win.
@@dallasburgess5329 Canucks: "Let's do the exact opposite of everything the Leafs are doing"
Alternate take: Maybe the Predators are playing well enough to make us look we're playing our worst hockey of the season. No bad teams I can remember have 16-0-2 streaks and have the best record in the league the second half. I'm happy with the wins but I can acknowledge when another team doesn't make it easy on us.
@@danielpatterson5189 Very classy comment! As a Preds fan I disagree, I don't think this Pretendators roster deserves to be in the NHL never mind the playoffs but very classy comment all the same. Good luck in the next round!
Another Canucks fan here, If I’m being brutally honest with myself I’d have to admit that the Canucks are third worst team in the playoffs so far. I’ve watched pretty much every game and series and other teams are faster hungrier and I see all out effort and sacrifice. They can play better but if they don’t pick it up they might not win another game in the playoffs. All the credit to the Preds for shutting down the Canucks. Series should be 3-1 for Nashville but that’s hockey. Game 3 Canucks get 12 shots on goal and win with 2 PP goals and some clutch goaltending. Game 4 Canucks completely disinterested most of the game and a couple of breakdowns and clutch plays get the win. Lindholm held the puck perfectly before feeding Boeser on the second goal. Hughes breaking ankles on the third goal and Garland with a beauty of a pass to Lindholm where Oreilly lost coverage. Let’s see what happens rest of series.
If you do the “one word” segment, I have one word for the Preds, it’s “seconds”. As in, how many times can the Preds give up costly goals this season within seconds of regulation, or another goal, or any other unfortunate opportunities that the opposition can take advantage of. This team just quits sometimes and it’s always at the worst times. How many embarrassing losses have the Preds had this year where defeat has been grabbed from the clothes of a winning opportunity. I’ll never stop being a Preds fan, but they sure don’t make it easy to be one.
As a Canucks fan I sympathize. So often this team under achieves, but than they give you a small glimpse of how great they can be and it's both exhilarating and oh so frustrating.
@@danielpatterson5189thanks. As a Preds, Falcons, Braves fan, I’m had my fair share of heartbreaks.
This has been a really fun and close series on the Ice, the moment any team steps off the gas even for a moment it really shows how dangerous both teams can be. Canucks have come up on the better end of it, but preds have been playing some really good hockey.
I subscribed to your channel
No Demko, invisible Pettersson, Canucks playing near their worst hockey of the year and they lead 3 games to 1. LOL.
My one word is Karma. The hit during the goal celebration was classless and embarrassing.
Does nick morgan only come on the show when the preds win ?
Saros will never be too good lol!
I like these locked on broadcasts better when there’s more than 1 host, this lady’s good but I like it when there’s a conversation.
Nashville have everything going for them and the y played a much better game with 3 minutes left. Perhaps the Canuck's triumph card was the ability of firing 8 cylinders at the crucial moment.
They've been clutch all year when they needed to be winning a lot of games that they shouldn't. I find the narrative that the Canucks need to learn how to win laughable. Games like this show Vancouver knows how to win.
Amazing Go Canucks Go
That will go down in infamy. Oh my.
Most legendary come backs require a legendary choke. Not this year but hopefully next time against someone else Preds fans are on the right side of it. Been on the wrong side plenty as a Nucks fan.
Tears from Edmonton AB
Rogers is going to be the loudest building ever winning there is gonna be tough
Can we borrow Josi when we go up against the Oilers next?
Borrow? No. But you can keep him! Enjoy the scoring opportunities he creates (for the other team). 😁
We're missing the dawg mentality for most of the team. Ryan O'Reilly needs to be cloned to give us some balls
Or another guy who just tackles player
Vancouverite and Canucks fan here. I don’t know how the Predators allowed the guy to stand in front of the net unmolested to put the winner in.
a good breakdown on a tough loss, go canucks go
As a Canadian , I feel I must say ; " I'm sorry. Taking a loss , is hard, and we Vancouverites are familiar, we get it. So, again I'm sorry."
All despite cheesy penalty calls and cheesy goal against Canucks.
Go Nucks!! 😂 🤘
Go Canucks Go 🇨🇦🏒🍁
Tough one for sure
So I'm a long time Canucks fan here. And I'll tell you the preds did nothing wrong what so ever . You should be proud of how they are playing. They have been the better team in all 4 games dispite being down 3 to 1 in the series. What I personally think is happening here is called playoff growing pains. Now yes the preds have been in the league for a long time now. But keep in mind the Canucks joined the league in 1970. The Canucks have repeatedly over the years been kicked in the teeth in the playoffs very much like what's happening right now to the preds. I think it's the just a case of the hockey gods as unfair as they are. They're just saying to the universe its not your time. Anyway take it with a grain of salt. I can't explain it. It makes no sense. Good luck the rest of the way.
As a Canucks fan who has seen most of the kickings first hand it makes total sense. Believe it or not Pred heads it really does get better hang in there.
Yeah we are proud they choked on their own farts. Saros is use to be on an island hung out to dry.
How did it happen? Its because you're playing in a defensive shell when you have the lead. I didnt think Silovs had a huge workload. A couple of big stops but there was alot from the outside. And Saros can't make timely saves either.
Nah man. Nashville outshot Vancouver in the third by a ton. The majority of that third we could barely get out of our zone. Vancouver just found another gear with their goalie out and Nashville choked as well. I thought the majority of that third was a clinic on how to play with a lead. The Canucks third in game 3 was a defensive shell. Ironically I hated that period but the Canucks got it done.
We are in terrible now lets pray we win game 5 now....💙💙💛💛
Not happening. We have to win the remaining games to win the series. Absolutely not happening
lol next year. Your season is done.
Canucks need to win this in 5. Quinn Hughes is just holding it together. You've done an excellent job of wearing him down. We can't give you guys hope or anything can happen. You're a pesky and resilient bunch. Respect.
Let’s pray your players stop running and slashing goalies. Canucks having to play with the third string goalie now. I wonder if preds with run him next game? Karma
It was a tough loss for you guys. I'm interested to see the response.
Yes ladies we are big in Vancouver, something in the water 😂
couldn't have happened to a better team
That hurt. It hurt enough that regardless of what happens we need to consider still rebuilding from the ground up.
Nah Canucks have choked many times this year but learned from it. It's a painful lesson but don't give up on your team. They've played hard and shown a ton of heart in this series. It's not over yet. I'm worried what could happen if Predators win game 5.
Preds face a must win game 5, 6, and 7 if they want win the series...not likely
Canucks have won series down 3-1 and blown some. Andrew Brunette was on the 2003 Minny team that fought back and humiliated us 5-2 in Game 7 in Vancouver. I could totally see his team haunting us again if your Predators win game 5. Series isn't over yet.
Probably the biggest choke of the playoffs so far. Worse than the islander choke.
Last night was embarrassing for you guys
Chalk up one for hockey country!
Uffff what a game. Go canucks 🤣
Preds plyed great But nucks practiced set plays all year long Just for games like this
They need to switch saros with lanky you just can’t play a goalie with .800 ga it’s just bad he’s a good regular season goalie but not a playoff goalie I just don’t see the logic in playing saros (and the defense was aweful too so it wasn’t all saros but you still gotta stop those pucks)
Karma
Saros wasn’t at fault at all. We all knew this. wtf was the d doing
Agreed. As a Nucks fan I can say that Vancouver may not have had many shots but a lot of the ones they had were grade A ones. I don't think he had much chance on any of the goals. Saros is playing much much better than that save percentage would indicate. Quality matters.
:) our Canucks
I love when accountants or staticians comment on absolute certainty of results and yet chaos theory happens...they let in a goal. Then another. Then another. Not sure how they deserved to win? Keep thinking u know how to play blackjack until that idiot comes to the table and splits tens...same issue. Chaos theory. U cant say they should have won when they break down as a team and let in 3 straight goals to lose.
nashville played for 57 minutes. canucks played for 60 minutes.
Canucks will win the series if not next game. Canucks are not what everybody expected to be. Predators do not know hockey nor or they a Hockey city. How do you expect a team to win games when you miss an empty net. Have a nice day!
parabola
Karma is a bitch..... Plus we have Big Hog on our team!!!
Nashville epic choke😂😂😂
Pathetic. Consider the playoffs over. They had no business being in the post season in the first place. Embarrassing loss
Preds in 7
Canucks haven't even played their A game yet and their up 3 to 1. Canucks elite talent is just to much for Trashville.
don't be that guy
@@northsource7215average Canucks fan. Once they lose to big brother Edmonton, they will wine and riot like always.
Careful what you say. Nashville doesn't have entire downtown city blocks with tent cities and drug addicts injecting. I've been to both cities and Nashville is way more interesting. Vancouver does have nice scenery.
@@nickchristoforou7850 you know you've lost the sports argument when you start talking about non sports things.
@@nickchristoforou7850 I've been to Tennessee, Nashville outside the downtown area is a meth shithole and dont get me going on the murder capital of America ,Memphis.
I will not be watching the remaining games. Absolutely pathetic performance. Might as well be a sweep.
Juusi saros its all your fault
Chokeville Chokeville Chokeville
I can see this being a chant in game 5 Tuesday at Rogers arena
Too bad. It's going 7@@zareeftashfique8168
Nooooo... Sorry... This isn't gonna be a seven games series.
