We're into June and it's already been a long summer for the Preds and they see themselves doing some soul searching just two years after making the Stanley Cup Final. They have questions to answer and moves to make. To help answer these questions, Michael Gallagher, host of PBR's Road to Nashville joins us to answer these questions. We also get a few stories of what it's like c...

We are down to four, and if the Boston game holds true, down to three by the time this episode comes out. No matter, it's playoff hockey and we love it! What we don't love is all the inconsistent officiating, but that's been the story the entire playoffs for San Jose. They may just win the Cup thanks to all of this and we could see some rule changes next season. We also talk about t...

Well, that was a let down. The Preds fall to the Stars in six games and hit the golf course early. They have company though as their fellow division leaders got bounced as well. It's been a playoff to remember and we very well could see wildcards in the Stanley Cup Final! As always, we hit the series, go over some stats, and talk briefly about what the Preds could do during the long off seaso...

The First Round will end this week. Did/will your team make it the Second Round? We've seen a Stanley Cup playoffs for the history books as both #1 seeds in the East/West get bounced and sweeps coming in left and right. Is it too late to put money down in Vegas? We sit down and go over the series so far, look at some stats, torch our brackets, and discuss the Preds/Stars series in a little mo...

The First Round of the Stanley Cup playoffs is upon us! What a mess it has been. The Lightning, best team of the season and one of the best teams ever has taken a punch in the nose from the Blue Jackets and can't stop the bleeding. Meanwhile, the Penguins are hanging on for dear life against the Islanders, while over in the West, the Blues and Jets slug it out while the Sharks and Knights chi...

The regular season is done and the Preds are Central Division champs. While this is fine and all, none of it matters now that the playoffs are here! We spend a few a minutes talking about Phil Housley and Coach Q, go over our preseason predictions, and then jump straight into our brackets for the playoffs. So grab your bracket and coffee because remember, you'll sleep when the playoffs are ov...

The guys sit down and record during the Preds game against the Wild Monday night. All they need is a win and they're in. Spoiler...they're in. They go through the current playoff standings, potential match-ups, and talk about the chance for the Lightning to make history in the salary cap era. Also, they welcome the newest members of the Preds, Dante Fabbro and Rem Pitlick to the team and...

It's March. While most of the sports world will be caught up with March Madness, the hockey world focuses on the slow steady march to the playoffs. Will Columbus pull off their gamble going all in? Will the Yotes or Hurricanes be the dark horse entries? Can the Preds overcome St. Louis and Winnipeg? We discuss all these things, take a look at the playoff standings overall, and to borrow a quo...

The Trade Deadline has come and gone! Did your team make a move or stand pat yesterday? The guys sit down and talk some of the biggest trades which took place on #NHLTradeDeadline day including Columbus going all in, Mark Stone off to Vegas, the Jets getting Hayes, the Preds picking up Granlund for Fiala and Wayne Simmonds for Hartman and a pick, and more. Now it's a race to the playoffs! You...

Also, the Preds FINALLY snapped their six game losing streak AND their 10 game road losing streak and look to be getting back into the swing of th...

It's the most wonderful time of the year! We're only one week away from Christmas and we all want is a strong Preds finish to the year. Injuries abound still and the boys are hitting some rough paths. Here's hoping they get back to winning ways. We talk about Ovi's stellar season so far, the continue downward spiral of the Blackhawks, the Flyers FINALLY getting rid of Hakstol a...

It's been a busy time for the guys since last getting behind the mics. Daniel got an espresso machine, Matt's learning his days of the week, and Kyle got engaged! Meanwhile in the hockey world, the Flyers axed their GM, Tom Wilson is being Tom Wilson, and the Sabres went on a TEN game win streak in the month of November. Also, how about that Chicago game eh? It felt good to destroy them...

Do you like rides? If so, then step right up to the NHL coaching carousel. It's been a wild season so far as we've seen the Blackhawks, Blues, Kings and the Oilers all fire their coaches in the month of November. So where does Q land? No one knows, but don't count on him remaining unemployed very long. We pick our best/worst Preds game since we last recorded, and Brooks Bratten and...

We are back for another week of Preds hockey and are working on our betting skills since the NHL has decided to allow betting with MGM Resorts. Also, were you aware Vancouver and Arizona don't suck, but the Kings are in last place and lost their coach?! What in the world is going on in the Pacific! We also talk about Rinne's contract extension, our best/worst game since we last recorded,...

Someone better call the fire department because these Preds are on fire! They are 7-1-0 after dropping opening night to Calgary. They've quickly rebound though and are already being tested with Rinne being out at least three games after his injury aagainst the Flames up in Calgary ironically. The guys go through the games, talk about the new band called Connor McDavid & the Oilers, Tootoo...

We dive right into all the fun covering injuries, suspensions...looking at you Tom Wilson...and Zac Rinaldo...you know it's coming, the Preds games against the Rangers and Islanders, and of course Zac Rinaldo again. Also we pose the question, what would you do with a million...

We are THIS CLOSE to regular season hockey and we are pumped! As we wait for opening night in Smashville, we talk about some league news. Specifically, Erik Karlsson is finally out of Ottawa...all the way to the golden coast of California and now in a Sharks jersey.  Also, the Senators are up in flames and we can see the smoke from here. We also talk about who had the best off-season acquisition,...

It's almost time for hockey season in Smashville! We are just days away from training camp and the start of preseason hockey! We kick into season 2 of Music City Gold talking about Nate Schmidt's PED ban, the Canadiens trading their captain, shockingly, to Vegas for a bag of hockey pucks, and give our Top 5 / Bottom 5 teams of the season. Then as we did last year, we give our Central Div...

Well kids, it's been a long two months for the MCG since their last show, but we are back with a summer episode! We've been in the gym working our muscles and flexing those "golden" pipes for the show and working our on woodworking skills as we actually did build a table so we could ditch the old card ones. This is a jam packed episode as we discuss the Preds offseason signings...

The Washington Capitals are the Stanley Cup champions! It's was a glorious final, one for the record books, and one for the ages. We take care of some league news at the start, specifically around the Islanders with Lou cleaning house and the Blackhawks future when it comes to Crawford.

We discuss the pivotal Game 7 of the ECF and swing over to the West where Vegas continues to shock the hockey world by making it to the Stanley Cup Final. Is this good or bad for the sport. Does it tarnish the myth of the Stanley Cup being the hardest trophy to win in sports? Are other hockey fan...

Sad day in the Preds world. The boys got bounced in Game 7 of the second round to the Jets and start the off season early. Not the ending we hoped for at all. Look on the bright side though, we had a FANTASTIC regular season and it's something to be proud of! The guys sit down and talk through the Eastern and Western Conference Finals, give their thoughts on Poile and Laviolette's end of...
