THUD!

That thud you heard last night around midnight Central was the Predator's dropping a game.

With a 4-1 loss to a desperate Vancouver Canucks, the Nashville Predator’s hot streak came to a screeching halt. Their road point streak and overall point streak are both stopped at seven. A case of starting the Christmas break a little too early? Perhaps, but this was still a successful road trip, anytime you do the western Canada swing and get four of six points, you say “thanks” and move on.

The Preds are back in action on Saturday at home, starting a home and home with the Blackhawks. Chicago lost to the Sharks at home last night, keeping the Central standings static. The Blackhawks are in Detroit tonight for a showdown with the Wings before their Christmas holiday.

Wednesday notes…

- The Goc/Dumont/Hornqvist line continued their hot streak as Patric Hornqvist potted the only Pred goal last night with helpers going to his line mates.

- No word on Jerred Smithson as of yet but it did appear that a puck caught him on the wrist or lower arm during his second shift last night.

- No shortage of hockey tonight. Twelve games on the schedule.

- Today is Duncan Stewart’s last day as part of the “House Foundation” (for those not aware, that is a popular morning show in Nashville) Duncan has been doing sports in Nashville for a long time and does an outstanding job. My best recollection of him is when he took to living on a billboard until the University of Tennessee won a football game. I wish him well…
