Worst Predators Game: February 17 vs. Detroit Red Wings (3-1 loss)
This one was disappointing on a couple of levels. It continued a two-game losing streak at home, something that hasn’t happened often under Peter Laviolette. The Detroit Red Wings are not a particularly good team, so you don’t want to leave points on the board against them.
It also happened in front of the largest home crowd in Nashville Predators history. It seemed like a random game for that to happen, but I suppose there are still a ton of Detroit-born folks in Nashville that still love their Red Wings. Was there a bobblehead giveaway? In any event, you would have preferred to see the Predators put their best foot forward on this evening and that didn’t happen. The team was flat.
