Up next on the preseason slate for the Nashville Predators is the Tampa Bay Lightning, the reigning back-to-back Stanley Cup champions. What better time than now to see where you’re team is at if you’re Head Coach John Hynes?
The Predators preseason opened up this past weekend with a Sunday doubleheader against another high quality opponent, the Florida Panthers. I’m all for facing stiff competition in the preseason to really get an idea of where your team is at before it really starts counting in the standings.
Hynes went with a predominantly young lineup in both games against the Panthers, which ended in two hard-fought losses.
