The Nashville Predators have not lost in regulation since their planned trip to see U2 play at The Sphere in Las Vegas was canceled
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Nashville Predators didn't get a chance to see U2 perform at the Sphere in Las Vegas as they planned.
They've enjoyed plenty of beautiful days since.
The Predators are on the longest point streak this NHL season, 16-0-2 in their past 18 games, since general manager Barry Trotz canceled the concert plan following a pair of bad home losses in mid-February. This stretch has shored up Nashville’s playoff positioning after looking to be on the bubble for several months.
“Obviously, it’s a crazy streak and there’s a lot of good luck in there, too, but we’ve done a great job earning it,” center Ryan O'Reilly said. “When things haven’t gone well, we have stuck with the program, have relied on each other and we’ve had different guys step up at different times all through this run.”
