The 2020 NHL All-Star Game is coming up this Saturday, and the Nashville Predators have Roman Josi representing. That got us thinking.
The Nashville Predators have been around for two decades now, and they’ve had plenty of great players throughout the years. It was a gradual build into the franchise they are today, but they’ve had some outstanding representatives at the All-Star games during that time.
This year Roman Josi will be the only representative for the Nashville Predators. It’s his third appearance, and I’m sure he has plenty more to come.
The early years of the franchise found it difficult to get all-stars due to being an expansion franchise. They weren’t loaded with talent and had to slowly build their roster into one that could contend for making the playoffs and actually win a playoff series.
Making an All-Star game isn’t some ordinary accomplishment. Let’s look back on some of the franchise’s best and most memorable All-Star selections going all the way back to the last millennium!
