Sleepers and Keepers Podcast: Canucks vs. Predators
Jason Chen and Michael Amato discuss a first-round matchup between the Canucks and Predators in the 2024 NHL Playoffs.
The Sleepers and Keepers fantasy hockey podcast hosts Jason Chen and Michael Amato disagree about how a Canucks-Predators series will play out.
While Jason -- without any bias -- believes the Canucks will have no problems against the Preds with a healthy roster, especially with Thatcher Demko returning, Michael thinks that the Preds' hot streak to close out the season is very noteworthy.
The Canucks were much more dominant early in the season but the big drop-off never happened, even though the analytics said they would.
Frankly, their elite talent and improvement in other areas prevented that from happening.
The Preds are also a little thin, despite having an excellent top line, a Norris candidate of their own in captain Roman Josi and an elite goalie in Juuse Saros.
No matter how this series plays out, however, both Jason and Michael believe the Canucks are favored.
