Podcast: Predators’ Growing Pains, Juuse Saros Panic Meter

Nashville Hockey Now’s Michael Gallagher talks Nashville Predators with Braden Gall of 440 Sports and Emma Lingan of the Hockey Writers on the Gold Standard podcast.
The Predators are fresh off their two worst periods of hockey this year — is it an effort issue, is it Andrew Brunette’s new system or is the team just not gelling together?
What’s wrong with Juuse Saros? Has our goalie succession plan changed? We discuss what the best course of action is for Saros, Kevin Lankinen and Yaroslav Askarov.
Forty games into the season can the Predators still blame their defensive struggles/goaltending issues on growing pains? Why is the team turning the puck over so much?
Finding positives: Philip Tomasino, Luke Evangelista, Colton Sissons, Michael McCarron and Jeremy Lauzon have all been noticeably improving.
