Tonight the Nashville Predators open their season on the road at St. Louis, and apparently a miracle worker has joined the Preds’ medical staff, boosting their offensive punch just in time for the official puck drop. This is from the NHL’s preview of tonight’s game:
Despite this [Radulov] situation, most of the core personnel returns from a team that was expected to be rebuilding, yet won 41 games, posted 91 points and lost to eventual Stanley Cup champion Detroit in six games during the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Jason Arnott and J.P. Dumont each had 72-point seasons to lead the team and were two of the four 20-plus goal scorers. Dumont led the Predators with a career-high 29 goals, while Martin Erat had a career season with 23.
Two-time 30-goal scorer Steve Sullivan returns after missing all last season with a back injury…
Tip o’ the hat to a fan on the Predators message boards for pointing this out!
