That’s a Wrap on New Faces for the Nashville Predators

While there are more new faces for the Predators that have played in the lineup this season, these players are the ones that have played the most for this team.

If the Predators are going to be successful this season and in years to come, they need to develop these young players and use their talent to its fullest potential.

With the Predators season going how it is through the first 36 games, it is likely that some of these new faces will be used as trade bait come closer to March 3, 2023, NHL Trade Deadline.

We will revisit this list later in the season and see who made it past the Trade Deadline and who was used to bolster this Predators lineup. The season depends on them stepping up and playing to their maximum ability to see if the Predators will be buyers or sellers come March 3.
