This is why, when we were talking about who we wanted the Preds to play in the 1st round, I said that I wanted anyone but the Sharks. This isn't to take anything away from the Preds, but the Sharks just match up far too well.
Disappointing? Yes.
Frustrating losing this series again? Yes
Still a Predators fan? **** YES. As disappointing as this is, nothing left to do but try hard to be the least bit optimistic and look forward to next season. Hopefully some changes for the better will come our way. I will be back following every game, by god you can bet your ass on that. I love this team despite the flaws and **** ups. I still love you Preds. I still love you.
The first two games I though Radulov was on of the Preds best players, but when he came back from suspention he got so little ice time. What's the deal with that?

It's been a great 8 years too bad the last Game in Nashville had to end like that.
If you're referring to relocation, it's extremely unlikely (even if they do move) that the Preds will be anywhere else next season. It's just not logistically feasible to get everything set during only a few months in the offseason. These things take at least a year of planning. BTW, I don't think that the Preds are going anywhere, now, in the near future, or distant future.

Exactly. ****ing down and sad now but not out and definately still a Preds fan. Been through too much crap to give up on them now.

It's ****ing pathetic and drives me nuts when our own fans are talking about relocating.

Don't take him seriously. Most of us don't, around here.

I'm a Mets fan...I'm extremely used to this.
I'll be here...and by here...i actually mean THERE, next year. Living with the girl likely means I won't get to watch EVERY game anymore, but I'll trade that for getting to be at a bunch of them.

He does not kill penalties well and when your team spends 30 minutes a game killing cheap penalties you don't see much ice time.
Sorry bout the loss guys! It must be tough to have to stomach this and it's a real shame cause I really thought the Preds had the team this year to go deep.
It's been in the planning for over a year. Bettman made sure of that with his hand picked refs
I don't understand that, Bettman should want nothing but for Nashville to succeed. Teams moving only hurts the league. If Nashville wins, goes far, the corporate boxes start selling and ratings go up in Nashville, who wouldn't want that.

Rational thought will get you no where. He blocks that out with his tinfoil hat.

Bettman and Leipold are looking for coperate money. KC has it, and We don't he does not care about Nashville one bit. The league left us on a island with zero support from them and we were unable to make it

Even when they weren't on the PK it seemed like he was hardly out there. I missed the 2nd period and a little after half way through the 3rd I actually found my self wonder if Radulov had been injured or something. But yeah way to many penalties.
Sharks fan here. Congratulations to the Preds on a great season, although I know a mere playoff appeareance no longer satisfies you. That's a good thing: high expectations! This was a much closer series than a 4-1 outcome would indicate. I hope the Sharks and Preds meet some year soon in the WCF, rather than the first round.
Both teams made the right additions since last year. Interesting how the offseason additions and new guys (Grier, Arnott, Dumont, Radulov, Pavelski, Vlasic) outshined the high profile deadline additions (Guerin, Forsberg).
