The playoff picture has a tendency to change extremely quickly. And I am thankful for On The Forecheck because they do a tremendous job of keeping the hockey community updated on all the contingencies, possibilities, and matchups around the league. But if you’ve missed the countless articles, a brief look has the Predators in a precarious position if they wish to maintain their supremacy. The Maple Leafs, Wild, and Jets, playoff teams all, shellacked us. Ellis was visibly angry when discussing the Maple Leafs game. Lavi got thrown out during the Wild game.
