Nashville Predators: Two Forwards They May Sign Yet
The Nashville Predators were fairly quiet on Day 1 of NHL Free Agency.
Nashville Predators GM David Poile had warned that the Preds might be more patient than most teams in the NHL Free Agency Draft. He didn’t want to overpay on Day 1 and it appears that some teams did.
Edmonton signed Milan Lucic for SEVEN years at $42 million. 30-year old Andrew Ladd signed for SEVEN years at nearly $6 million per. They could have resigned Kyle Okposo for that much. Another 30 plus year old, Loui Ericsson signs for SIX years at $6 million a year.
