So, the question remains, it’s a new season but will this team face the same struggles as they did last year? I don’t think they will. Under the new system led by bench boss Andrew Brunette, they’re going to focus more on speed and scoring while maintaining a strong defensive core.

And let’s face it, anytime that Juuse Saros is in net, the Predators have a chance to win, providing they can right the ship on the other issues surrounding this team.

Only time will tell how the Nashville Predators will play for the fans of Smashville, but I am very optimistic on the season and where this team is headed.
