The discussion covers whether this is a coaching problem, roster construction issue, or mental block after two seasons of similar struggles. Key topics include potential organizational changes, Barry Trotz's patience threshold, and bright spots from Ozzy Wiseblatt, Matthew Wood, and Juuse Saros keeping games competitive despite offensive futility.Tune in for an unflinching look at the Predators' crisis and what Saturday's matchup against Dallas might reveal about this team's direction. 0:00 Intro4:33 Board breaking analogy for mental blocks8:27 Ryan O'Reilly's devastating post-game comments12:50 Locker room cares despite the losses15:57 Brunette says "I don't know any other way"20:55 Is the coaching staff trying anything new24:38 What's the "something" Nashville should do28:45 Positives: Ozzy Wiseblatt came in like wrecking ball30:30 Juuse Saros keeps giving team chances33:00 Matthew Wood continues to impress36:30 Keys to beating the Dallas Stars Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOPredators?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL Follow us on Social Media!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lockedonpredators/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LockedOnPredatorsTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/LO_PredatorsEmma's Twitter: https://twitter.com/emma_linganAnn's Twitter: https://twitter.com/AnnK_MamaOnIce Join our Locked On Predators Insider Program!https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonpredators #NashvillePredators #NHL #Preds Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! RugietReady to level up your confidence ?
