NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Barry Trotz is retiring as general manager of the Nashville Predators after just under three years on the job but will stay on until a successor is found, sources confirmed to ESPN's Kristen Shilton and Greg Wyshynski.
The decision is not health-related, per sources.
A news conference with Trotz, majority owner Bill Haslam and CEO Sean Henry is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET.
Trotz took over control of hockey operations from longtime GM David Poile in the summer of 2023. The Predators made the playoffs the following season after Trotz fired coach John Hynes and hired Andrew Brunette to replace him.
