Predators beat reporter Tennessean | rec hockey | Bonnaroo junkie | Tolkien fan
Marc Del Gaizo placed on waivers. I’d bet he clears waivers and makes it to Milwaukee.

This also means either Josi, Lauzon, or Carrier returns to the lineup tomorrow.

Long before he skated in his first NHL game as a defenseman, Brady Skjei was a lowly third-string quarterback.

Here’s what happened next.

How high school football led Brady Skjei to a starring role with the Nashville Predators
Nashville Predators defenseman Brady Skjei once had to decide between football and hockey. It's safe to say he chose wisely.

Ever wondered how non-U.S. born players celebrate U.S. Thanksgiving?

Had some fun conversations with Jeremy Lauzon, Juuse Saros, and Filip Forsberg about it.

Fedor Svechkov will make his NHL debut tonight.

Other lineup changes: Luke Evangelista back in, Parssinen and Tomasino out.

There was a fight—more of a dust up, really—at Predators practice today.

First one of these I’ve seen.

What change do you think the Preds should make?

Trade someone? Fire a coach? Call up a prospect? Something else?
November 21, 2024 at 8:13 PM
Philip Tomasino in, Luke Evangelista out tonight for the Preds vs. Kraken

I really can’t see it happening unless the team goes on another epic point streak like last year.
Per @alexdaugherty.bsky.social

I'm 100% on board with this. I also wouldn't mind a shake up of the bottom 6.

Big night for Steven Stamkos, big win for the Nashville Predators.

Steven Stamkos scores twice in Nashville Predators' 5-3 win over Vancouver Canucks

And now the Canucks make it 4-3...
Predators are conceding possession to the Canucks quite a bit. Don't like the last 6 minutes of 5v5 play, though Juuse Saros has been spectacular.

Stamkos with another. 4-2 over Canucks.

Brady Skjei's first point in nine games, assisting on that Josi goal.
November 18, 2024 at 4:38 AM
What a sequence. Former Preds forward Kiefer Sherwood fans on the breakaway, then Roman Josi hammers home the go ahead goal.
November 18, 2024 at 4:32 AM
Steven Stamkos scores his 5th goal for the Predators. This one is a dart from way out, what a shot.
November 18, 2024 at 4:29 AM
That 3 minute stretch from Nashville was near perfect.
November 18, 2024 at 4:11 AM
McCarron, Smith, ZLH has been incredible so far. So much pressure from that line.

Zach L'Heureux scores his first career NHL goal. He had a lot of net to shoot at here.

We will be asking this question until the end of time. It’s really odd.
why is it always tomasino getting scratched
