We’re inching closer to the March 3 NHL trade deadline and it remains very unclear just how the Nashville Predators will approach it.

After a horrendously lopsided loss to the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday to come out of an 11-day break over the All-Star break, the Predators remain just four points out of a playoff spot in both the wildcard and to get into a top-three spot in the Central Division. Both paths are within striking distance.

On Thursday, an off day for the Predators, they were able to get some help as three teams who are four points ahead of them in the standings all lost, making Tuesday’s loss to Vegas sting a little less.

The Nashville Predators have 10 games remaining before the trade deadline, with the Philadelphia Flyers up next in a day game on the road. How these next 10 games go will drastically affect what happens at the trade deadline.

We’ll refresh this list as the deadline gets closer, but for now, here’s my top five current Nashville Predators who are most likely to get moved.
