The Nashville Predators should have some available cap space this offseason and the question becomes what should they use it on. When you’re in the Western Conference, more specifically the Central Division, the Center position is usually the deepest for the Cup-contending teams.
Just think about some of the teams that have won or challenged for the Cup. The Kings had Jeff Carter and Anze Kopitar, The Sharks have Joe Thornton and Joe Pavelski, The Ducks have Ryan Getzlaf and Ryan Kesler, The Blackhawks have Jonathan Toews and Artem Anisimov, and the list goes on and on.
