We have Nashville Predators hockey coming up on the horizon as the 2021-22 NHL regular season is just over a week away with the preseason opening up. Until then, we have an appetizer as the Predators prospects head to rookie camp this week.
With the Predators becoming such a younger team over the offseason with so many impactful roster moves, seeing how their prospects are developing in game action will be entertaining to watch this weekend down in the Sunshine State.
The Predators are entering the season with a new era and a fresh look as much of the veteran core was dismantled over the offseason. There are still key veterans that remain, but there is opportunities abound for prospects to get that coveted NHL call-up this season.
Rookie camp will open up this Thursday and run through the weekend down in Florida for the Prospect Showcase, which will feature four teams including the Predators, Hurricanes, Lightning and Panthers.
I’ve got five prospects I’m really intrigued to see in action this weekend and hoping to see them stand out above some of the rest. It’s a rookie camp roster full of exciting talent.
