If their coach Trotz would have stuck up for his team maybe Arnott would not have had too! Th refs were horrid during the playoffs- ummm you think the NHL really wants Nashville to win over a money machine like Chicago?????
Arnott is a strong player whom had a season of disappointing injuries. He doesn’t take bullshit and if healthy a asset to any team.
How about the coach has been there for 11 years and they have been mediorce and the majority of highly talented players have left under their rein…
Preds had many issues but Arnott isn’t one.

There are various reasons we never get out of the playoffs, but lack of talent isn’t one of them. World class defensemen and the NHL’s best goalie since the Olympic Break isn’t a lack of talent.
Our pop gun power play, on the other hand.
Thanks for linking the piece, Brandon!

The reason they never get out of the first round has little to do with talent. The lack of playing playoff hockey is the problem, the way they skate is exactly like they do in the regular season. They just don’t show up.

The reason the preds never get out of the first round in not that Arnott is the captain, its a lack of top level talent.
