Nashville Predators’ hockey is finally back, even if it is just the preseason. Here are the top five things to keep an eye out for.

Well everybody, as I am sure you know, we finally made it. The Nashville Predators are playing hockey again. They had a double-header against the Florida Panthers this past Tuesday, and they will play again later today in Tampa Bay against the Lightning. After today they will play three more pre-season games before opening their season in Boston on October 5.

As in most sports, the pre-season is a time for coaches to evaluate young talent. Likewise, it is also a chance for these guys to make the NHL roster. However, for most of the fans we do not care about this. That is why I made a list of the top five things for us to watch for the remainder of the pre-season. This will just be a brief introduction of each topic. Keep your eyes posted, though. I will dive into each topic more in-depth leading up to October 5.
