With the latest installment of the Star Wars saga released, I thought it would be fun to compare the Nashville Predators to characters from the series.

I am sure it comes as no surprise to anyone that I am a huge fan of the Star Wars saga. Have been all my life. When the tickets went on sale for The Last Jedi, my wife purchased our tickets for opening night. My mind is still racing through the movie, analyzing what I witnessed. As I looked over things for the Nashville Predators, I started comparing players to characters.

Now, getting home at 1:30 AM and having to get up at 5:30 AM to get kids ready for school and myself off to work creates a tired mind. So I waited until after I rested to get into this piece.

Seeing it twice only confirms my initial thoughts.

Of course, most of you are familiar with the movies. You know who the main characters are, the storylines, the goofy moments and the amazing action that transpire. When it comes to generating these comparison, it takes creativity. But this is supposed to be an exercise in fun and not reality.

So, here is what I will do. While I have read the books in the Star Wars canon, as well as many of the newly-dubbed Expanded Universe texts, you may have not. Therefore, I will limit my comparisons to solely the characters in the movies. Lastly, these are just my thoughts. Certainly, with comparisons like this, it is easy to see things differently.

And with that let’s begin. May the force be with us.
