Juuse Saros, Youth Movement, & Three Free Agent Signings: Nashville Predators 2023-24 in Review

The Nashville Predators wrapped up their 2023-2024 season with a first round playoff loss to the Vancouver Canucks, but there was plenty to like about Barry Trotz's and Andrew Brunette's first season in charge. On today's Locked On Predators podcast, we talk about the highs and lows of 2023-2024. While many questioned the free agents Barry Trotz brought in last offseason, Gustav Nyquist, Ryan O'Reilly, and Luke Schenn turned out to be major pieces in Nashville's success. Filip Forsberg had a career year on the Predators' top line. We talk about what the keys to his franchise record setting success might have been. It was a season of some inconsistency for Juuse Saros. How could his 2023-24 performance affect the offseason goaltending decisions for the team? Finally, we take a look at the Western Conference second round playoffs. We'll share which matchup we believe will lead to the Stanley Cup team. Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOPredators?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL Follow us on Social Media!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lockedonpredators/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LockedOnPredatorsTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/LO_PredatorsNick's Twitter: https://twitter.com/_nsmorganAnn's Twitter: https://twitter.com/AnnK_MamaOnIce #NashvillePredators #NHL #Preds Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.
