All David Freeman

With today marking the three-month anniversary of Predators Holding’s purchase of the team, NashvillePredators.com grabbed some time with David Freeman, the team’s new Chairman, to discuss his first three months on the job, the state of the team, and the plans for next season....

NP.com: Have you starting planning the budget for next season?
DF: Sure. Yes. Strategically it’s probably not good for us to talk about that publicly for competitive reasons. Our budget will be significantly higher than it was this year. In fact, I’m quite certain we will spend more on payroll next year than at any time in the history of the club. We’re that committed to building this team right back up.

More of my comments about this interview on my own blog, but overall i’m really excited about what the new ownership is doing, and very very excited about this statement about having the largest budget the team has ever had. If Freeman really knows what he’s talking about there, and we’re going to have a team with a bigger payroll than the Timmonen, Foppa, Kariya, Hartnell, Vokoun (with current Arnott, Sullivan, Radulov, etc) team...wow. that should be very nice indeed.

Freeman sure needs to learn how to pep up his interviews though. Sounds like he’s...just...meh…
