Six Players Who Should Be on Nashville Predators Roster Bubble in 2023-24
By Chad Minton
The amount of roster change the Nashville Predators went through in 2022-23 made it extremely difficult to build a team identity, and yet an influx of youth rallied the team from falling completely apart.
The Nashville Predators had 39 players log at least one game last season, their highest total since their Stanley Cup Final appearance season in 2016-17.
Needless to say, the Predators are hoping they don’t have to dig that deep into the depth chart in 2023-24. They’re looking to have better injury luck for sure, but also looking for more consistency in their line combinations as Andrew Brunette takes over for John Hynes.
Training camp is going to be full of players competing for a starting role as a new system gets rolled in under Brunette. No one’s starting role, or spot on the depth chart should feel secure. That’s a good thing.
With that said, here’s my top six players who should be on the roster bubble as we sit in June of the offseason and the NHL Entry Draft under three weeks away.
