Revisiting David Poile's Drafts - 2009

Revisiting David Poile's Drafts - 2009

September 2nd, 2019 Recently, I’ve been diving into David Poile’s draft history as general manager of the Nashville Predators. Since he’s been the franchise’s only GM, he’s been at the helm for every draft since 1998. Beginning with that first draft, I’m working forward to the present, with this installment covering the 2008 Draft. For...

May 28th, 2019 The 2019 World Championships have come and gone, with Team Finland capturing gold.

Reviewing Predators' 2018-19 Season: Defensemen Edition

May 13th, 2019 On May 3 I wrote a review of Nashville Predators forwards from the 2018-19 season. Some of those players, including Ryan Johansen, Viktor Arvidsson, and Rocco Grimaldi, received high grades. Meanwhile, others like Kyle Turris and Calle Järnkrok, didn't do so well.

Predators' Ekholm Deserves Norris Consideration

Predators' Ekholm Deserves Norris Consideration

January 15th, 2019 The Nashville Predators have one of the league's best blue lines that is loaded with top level talent, so much so that they have four defensemen who could be number ones on many other teams. Ryan Ellis, Roman Josi and P.K. Subban are the most notable names in their defense corps with Mattias Ekholm often being an afterthought. But that...
Predators' 2018-19 Mid-Season Awards

Predators' 2018-19 Mid-Season Awards

January 4th, 2019 The Nashville Predators are one of 16 teams to have reached the season's midway point with at least 41 games played. The Predators have played exactly 41 games and have a 24-15-2 record with 50 points and are second in the Central Division, two points back of the Winnipeg Jets. Because it's the team's halfway point, I felt it'd be an...
