Nashville Predators: An Overview of the 2017 Entry Draft

The NHL Entry Draft concluded Saturday, and Nashville Predators GM David Poile wasted no time reloading his team with talent. Poile, who already has a roster with 16 players aged 25 or younger, added 6 more over the weekend. The Predators had 6 picks spread out over 7 rounds. Although the Nashville Predators showed their depth of young talent this year, there is always a need for more.

With the departure of James Neal, and the potential retirement of captain Mike Fisher, there will obviously be offensive holes in the Predators lineup. Thus, creating one need for Poile in the draft.
