Don’t expect the Nashville Predators to catch anyone off guard next season as they look to defend their Western Conference title. The opposition is now fully aware of them and what they bring to the table.
With all of the great success the Predators are coming off of comes elevated expectations from both fans and the players themselves. It leaves a lot of room for disappointment. Not trying to sound all doom and gloom, but that’s the way it goes when you’re coming off a crazy run to the Stanley Cup Final. Fans are now hungry for more, and expect more.
