Thursday’s Dump & Chase: Big News From West End

Nashville Predators News & Notes

Austin Watson and Kevin Fiala Race Go-Karts (07/29/15) Video – NHL VideoCenter – Nashville Predators
Screw it, here’s the video.

Kevin Fiala is wearing a US flag shirt, and Austin Watson looks like a freaking hockey player.

That’s the future, right there.

Why am I so jazzed up about this? If Nashville ever gets a Stadium Series game, a rebuilt Vanderbilt Stadium could be a solid option. They’ll find a way to sell beer there. No worries.

No one’s said anything about the Admirals or the arena dimensions yet, but it doesn’t look like it will be designed with the NHL in mind.

Cali. As. Hell. I was hoping he’d go to the jail where Marv went in the movie Sin City.

He’s a decent second line center that will be buoyed by the arrival of TJ Oshie and Justin Williams. I think they will find room.

Expanding realignment talk; Could Tampa Bay work in the Western Conference? | Raw Charge
GAHDANGIT… Why does everyone want to the Central Division to kill one another. It’s bad enough that half of you people on here want Nashville in a division with Chicago, St. Louis, and Detroit “because our rivalries mean so much to us”. THEIR FANS DON’T EVEN HATE YOUR TEAM (except St. Louis, because if they’re paying attention to a Blues/Preds game… it likely means that it’s not baseball season and they freaking hate it when that happens).

You know what I like more than seeing the Preds play those guys 6 times a year? Having a better shot at banners and playing them 2-4 times a year.

That’s a wise plan. How do we get Nashville on a CSN Network? By giving Ed Snider more money? Nah.
