Part of the Penalty Box Radio network, Music City Gold is Smashville's best fan driven podcast. Hosted by Kyle Hancock, Daniel Mangrum, and Matt Bain, they cover news around the league, the Predators, and sometimes give the occasional hot take or two. Episodes are released every two weeks!
We are halfway there! The Preds are in a playoff spot despite some good games and some...not so great games. The real question though is what do we do about Saros. We love him, he's the best, but he's just been a different goalie this season. Askarov came up and played a couple games and even got a win. Is it time to bring him up as the full time backup next season?
Plus, what is going on in Toronto? They signed ...
The Preds we saw in November are not the same Preds we saw in October. They are on a 8-2 (make that 9-2 after recording) win streak! Could it be the new system is finally clicking? What if Arizona makes the playoffs? Do we see "Mullett Magic" happen for real? Also, Patty Kane lands in Detroit and makes Matt happy to see a superstar want to go to play for the Red Wings!
The Preds have embraced rebuild mode and well...it hurts to watch despite seeing some fun hockey. This is what the fans wanted, but did they realize what a rebuild really meant?
Edmonton is on a downward spiral, firing their coach after posting a 3-9-1 record after 13 games and losing to the league's worst San Jose Sharks. Will this be enough to keep McDavid in Edmonton or do we finally seeing him request a trade?
The 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs are here! The Boston Bruins are the favorite, but can they break the curse of teams who win the Presidents' Trophy? Can McDavid and the Oilers win the Cup? Can Toronto make it out the first round for the first time in years? We discuss these things and dissect our brackets.
Thanks for listening! If you enjoy the show, be sure to follow us on Twitter and subscribe to us on YouTube! Until next time, ...
We are post trade deadline and the Preds are down some big guns and we've called up a good chunk of the AHL roster to fill in the gaps. Somehow, beyond all reason, we are still winning! How?!
We discuss the impacts of Sherwood, Novak, Leonard, and Evangelista as the Preds looking to be giving it their best shot to make into the playoffs as a young and scrappy team who are putting on good, fun hockey!
It's been a whirlwind weekend for the Preds. First up, we learn David Poile is retiring as GM and Barry Trotz is taking over come July. Will the team shine under Trotz or will it continue to be mediocre?
The NHL Trade Dealine is looming and the Preds have been in the mix, the big news being the blockbuster trade with Tampa for Tanner Jeannot. Will the Preds look at trading Ekholm and maybe even...Saros to rebuild the...
Bruce Boudreau was fired from the Canucks in a less than stellar fashion from the Canucks on Monday after being behind the bench for only 14 months. The Canucks loss is another team's gain. The Preds would do good to take a look at the bench boss players and fans love and compare him against Hynes and his current system.
The Preds are on the outside looking in and despite a "competitive rebuild" and "em...
We are nearing the half-way point of the season. The Preds seem to be on a yo-yo as they keeping moving and back forth away from a wildcard spot in the playoffs. Meanwhile, we also have the All-Star game approaching and Juuse Saros will be representing the Preds. Also, Eeli Tolvanen seems to be thriving with the Kraken. Excuse us while we go on a rant to the mishandling of Tolvanen in the Preds system.
The Preds played a shorter schedule thanks to Bridgestone arena being flooded by a major downtown water leak. Despite less games, we finally seem to be seeing some consistently. Defense lines are good, goalkeeping is good, and scoring is being spread out amongst all the forward lines, and we talk about the possibility of seeing Eeli Tolvanen (RIP) and Dante Fabbro being trade targets.
The Preds recently completed a home stand, grabbing nine out of 10 points. Has the team finally found their groove? We've seen Forsberg doing Forsberg things and players such as Roman Josi, Matt Duchene, and Nino Neiderreiter stepping up their games and new comers such as Jusso Parssinen making a big impact.
Have the Preds finally found their groove or will we spend the rest of the season playing catch up to the rest ...
We are five more games into the season. The Preds started a five game road trip across western Canada and the Pacific Northwest. With an always strong Central Division, the Preds need to figure out their identity. We've seen line blenders almost each game and well known players such as Tolvanen, Carrier, Glass, and Fabbro getting scratched.
They embody the "Smashville" moniker, but as Edmonton proved the oth...
The NHL 22-23 season has begun for the Predators. We are seven games and we only have two wins...but on a different continent. Fans are already calling for Hynes to be replaced and in some cases even GMDP himself. Is this an overreaction to a slow start or do we continue to see this happen during the season?
We also discuss the off season signings by the Preds, the new reverse retro jerseys, the Coyotes playing at ASU this...
The 2022 Stanley Cup Playoffs continue with Round Two! We review the results of Round One, compare our brackets, and give our opinions on Round Two and how the games will go.
The Preds, the first time out of the playoffs, held a presser on Thursday to discuss off-season plans . We dissect the answers and discuss the elusive Forsberg signing, extending of Coach Hynes, and the individual successes of Josi, Saros, Duchene, an...
Round One of the 2022 Stanley Cup Playoffs has begun! Our brackets are set and now all we can do is cross our fingers and hope we picked the overall winner. We go through the games as of Wednesday evening and discuss the most important thing on the agenda, the Preds getting whooped by the Avs. If we are bounced early, what does this mean for Forsberg, Hynes, and GMDP in the off-season?
Spoiler: Despite a great performance...
We are into the final month of hockey and the Preds are poised to either make it or break it. A win over Ottawa should be a given and give them some help, but Dallas is hanging in there and it will come down to the wire.
Roman Josi should be the default Norris candidate at this point. He's having a recording breaking season not only team wise, but league wise as well. Does he get it or does the hockey world bestow it ...
It's been a while since we've been able to get together and talk some hockey. Now that our commitments are out of the way, we're back to talk the Preds and some of the trades which have happened around the league since our last episode.
Preds are poised for a spot in the playoffs and we still don't see any sign of Forsberg either being signed or traded away. What is GMDP going to do? We certainly don&ap...
It's a been while since we recorded so it's time for a recap of news around the league. We've seen coaching changes at Montreal and Edmonton on the same day. Will McDavid request a trade out of Edmonton if they fail to make the playoffs? Will Arizona be deregulated into an AHL team (a joke!) for playing the foreseeable future at Arizona State University?
And with the Preds, do we see them continue their hot ...
The All-Star Game rosters, captains, and last men in have been selected there have been some...interesting omissions...specifically big name players such as Josi, Crosby, Marchand, and others. Should the NHL go back to the East vs West format and stop sending a player from each team?
How about those Oilers as well? Started off strong and now well, they are free falling and nobody seems to know how to fix them. We also disc...
It's been a busy few days of Covid-19 protocols for the league. The Preds were not spared and have had to call up both players and coaches from their AHL affiliate, the Milwaukee Admirals to fill in the gaps. Stepping back from covid though, it's also been a busy couple of weeks for the league as a whole.
Vancouver and Philadelphia hop aboard the coaching carousel, Arizona "forgets" to pay their taxes a...
Forsberg is back from injury and is making up for lost time, scoring four goals Tuesday night against the Blue Jackets. What does this to do complicate his impending contract negotiations? Will GMDP be forced to sign him to a deal he doesn't want to give or does he risk letting Forsberg test the free agency waters and go somewhere else?
Also, the Preds release their navy Stadium Series jerseys to lackluster fanfare. I...
