The Canucks have drawn the Nashville Predators, a team headlined by some recognizable vets but backed up by a roster that seems like it was generated by ChatGPT, as we have a good time Inventing Some Guys who sound like they could play for the Preds. We're not taking them lightly though, and it should be quite a series as Nashville's coming in hot and the Canucks have somewhat limped into the post-season. All three of us make our picks for each opening round series as well, and we take one departing look at the now defunct Arizona Coyotes. A-woo.
