We’re now less than a month away from the Nashville Predators taking the ice for preseason action as they’ll open up with a doubleheader at the Florida Panthers on September 25.

Maybe more so than any preseason in recent memory, the Nashville Predators enter a crucial preseason slate that will be full of learning moments and roster shuffling to try to find the right combination for this flipped over roster from just six months ago.

With a new bench boss in Andrew Brunette, preseason is going to have a whole new level of importance for this team. All coaching staffs will preach how important preseason is, but for the more establish NHL rosters, probably not as much so as the Nashville Predators.

Really no one should feel content with their spot within the starting lineup. Frankly every players, including Roman Josi and Filip Forsberg, should be coming into this preseason with chips on their shoulders and ready to get to work.

However, there are three players in particular who with strong preseason showings can really improve their stock once opening night of the regular season gets here and the starting NHL roster has been initially set.
