from Jessica Hopp of the Tennessean,
Today, in front of a national NBC audience, the Predators host the Red Wings in Game 6 with a chance to again tie the series. But to parlay recent playoff success into a larger fan base and greater national recognition, observers say the Predators need to do one major thing: defeat Detroit.
“The big step for them is they have to win this playoff series,” said Pierre McGuire, a national hockey television analyst who won two Stanley Cups as a member of the Pittsburgh Penguins organization in 1991 and 1992. “This gives them huge collateral going forward.”
For now, in Nashville, at least, hockey fever has taken hold.
