Pup on the mic

The only opinions I want to hear from after the Predators were bounced by the Dallas Stars in Game Six. A puppy at the mic would definitely make any press conference better, especially after a big loss.

Storylines

Damian Lillard

Yeah, yeah, yeah I know it’s hockey and this particular thing is about basketball…but did you see Damian Lillard win the series last night for the Trail Blazers? The shot was from 37 feet and the game was tied.

See this as a potential sign for tonight. Shoot your shot, Caps. Go all in. It ain’t over until the final buzzer.
