Predators' Forward Depth Leading to Wins

Predators' Forward Depth Leading to Wins

January 20th, 2021 The Nashville Predators got off to a good start in this abbreviated 2019-20 season with two wins over the Columbus Blue Jackets, scoring eight goals against a notoriously stingy team. Their back-to-back set against the Carolina Hurricanes didn’t quite go as planned, with the first game a 4-2 loss where they looked flat and game two...
Predators' 2020-21 Roster Is a Balancing Act

Predators' 2020-21 Roster Is a Balancing Act

January 16th, 2021 On Tuesday, the deadline for the NHL final rosters came and went, and then on Wednesday, the Nashville Predators unveiled their 2020-21 opening night roster. The roster features 12 forwards, seven defensemen, two goaltenders, two players that were non-designated, and five players on the taxi squad. One of the bigger changes of this...

What We Must See From Certain Predators This Season

January 14th, 2021 After a long wait and much uncertainty, hockey is back. The season has been modified; teams will only play 56 games this year. The stands will be far from full. Fans will see the same team more than usual and possibly more than they would like. But who cares, hockey is back! The Nashville Predators kick off their campaign on Jan. 14...
Predators' 5 Keys to Strong Start in 2020-21 Season

Predators' 5 Keys to Strong Start in 2020-21 Season

January 6th, 2021 It's rare for an NHL team to start off slow and bounce back to snag a playoff spot in a normal 82-game regular season. While there are exceptions – like the 2018-19 St. Louis Blues – it’s very uncommon for teams to experience such a wondrous turnaround. In the COVID-19 world of altered and shortened seasons, it will be...
Blue Jackets' 'Untouchable' Players & Prospects

Blue Jackets' 'Untouchable' Players & Prospects

December 11th, 2020 Who are the “untouchable” players and prospects – those who should not be traded by a franchise to protect their future? The true answer is “nobody.” Any player on any team can be had for the right package by a general manager so determined. For the Columbus Blue Jackets, however, we can name at least one player who is...

Ryan Johansen for Seth Jones: Still a Win-Win Trade

July 14th, 2020 Jerseys were flying off the shelves. The Nashville Predators thought they were finally getting that number one centerman they needed and the Columbus Blue Jackets landed a big gun on the back end.  The one-for-one blockbuster trade that sent All-Star center Ryan Johansen to Nashville in exchange for highly-touted defenseman Seth...
Blue Jackets Face New Johansen Situation with Dubois

Blue Jackets Face New Johansen Situation with Dubois

June 25th, 2020 Columbus Blue Jackets general manager Jarmo Kekalainen raised some eyebrows when he selected center Pierre-Luc Dubois No. 3 overall at the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. In retrospect, he shouldn’t have. It was the right decision. Dubois Over Puljujarvi It isn’t just that a winger, Finn Jesse Puljujarvi, who fell to the Edmonton Oilers...
Filip Forsberg Trade Revisited

Filip Forsberg Trade Revisited

May 16th, 2020 From the eighth seed in the Western Conference to the Stanley Cup Final, the Nashville Predators provided hockey fans with a wild ride through the 2017 NHL Playoffs. At the center of that playoff run was Filip Forsberg. Forsberg is just one of general manager David Poile’s many great acquisitions over the years. Since arriving in...

5 Underperforming Predators

5 Underperforming Predators

November 23rd, 2019 The Nashville Predators were flying high in October. They were scoring goals at a franchise-record pace, leading to some exciting hockey with them piling up wins along the way. However, with the Predators losing their last six games and dropping eight of their last 10, those good times seem to be a distant memory. Related:...
Predators 2018-19 Report Cards: Ryan Johansen

Predators 2018-19 Report Cards: Ryan Johansen

September 6th, 2019 The Nashville Predators' 2018-19 season didn't go as planned. Yes, they won the Central Division for the second straight season, but they totaled 17 fewer points than the previous season and have now exited the postseason in an earlier round two years in a row. There were numerous reasons for this: a mediocre power play, a general lack...
How the Predators’ Lineup May Look with so Many Centers

How the Predators’ Lineup May Look with so Many Centers

July 26th, 2019 Viktor Arvidsson-Ryan Johansen-Filip Forsberg or will it be Arvidsson-Matt Duchene-Forsberg? How will the Nashville Predators' lineup look next season? Well, it might be madness to break up the "JOFA" line, and it’s a pretty safe bet to assume head coach Peter Laviolette and his staff think so too. But, after that seasoned and proven...
Reviewing Predators' 2018-19 Season: Forwards Edition

Reviewing Predators' 2018-19 Season: Forwards Edition

May 3rd, 2019 The 2018-19 season has come and gone for the Nashville Predators. An up-and-down regular season may have ended with a Central Division title, but the season ultimately concluded with a first-round exit at the hands of the Dallas Stars. An obvious letdown given the team's roster makeup and success in recent seasons, it's time to review...
