[For those that may not know] The Nashville Predators are a professional ice hockey team from the National

The Predators are now among the NHL's elite teams, the expansion club
that has been long known as the underdogs to most of competition around the NHL, has finally made their presence known in the new NHL.
They made a few major line up changes during this past season picking up some major free agents and making some key trades.
The team acquired veteran forward Jason Arnott (free agent) in July 2006, prior to the start of the season and also made a significant trade to
the Philadelphia Flyers for five-time NHL all-star Peter Forsberg. Arnott was a significant addition to the team and tied David Legwand for the
most goals scored on the team (27 goals each).
The Predators were in first over all during the 2006/07 NHL season for most of the season and eventually finished in third place
with 110 points, a franchise record. The team continued with their post season struggles as they were defeated by the San Jose Sharks
in the Western conference quarter-finals for the second year in a row.
This season is a different story, with Forsberg & Kariya no longer part of the team, the Predators are battling for the last playoff spot in
the Western Conference, only time will tell how things play out during the remainder of the season.
