Sunday’s Dump & Chase: The Great Sadness

Nashville Predators failed to live up to expectations | ProHockeyTalk
"The team came into the playoffs with 117 points in the regular season and a Presidents’ Trophy to show for their efforts. None of that matters though, its place now is only for context when talking about how and why it all went wrong."

I'm not saying articles like this are wrong, but I wish they'd include this little thing called context. Much is made of the Preds having the best record in the NHL this season, but very little is mentioned about just how good this Winnipeg team is (they finished with 114 points, guys) and how they were just 2 or 3 points behind Nashville for pretty much the entire homestretch of the regular season.
