On Saturday afternoon, Elliotte Friedman broke the news that the Nashville Predators traded forward Nino Niederreiter to the Winnipeg Jets in exchange for a 2024 second-round pick.
After General Manager David Poile characterized Nashville’s position ahead of the NHL trade deadline as, “day-to-day,” it finally appears that the veteran executive will be selling before Friday, March 3. The Predators currently sit seven points out of the last playoff spot in the Western Conference with a 28-22-6 record.
In 56 games this season, Niederreiter has scored 18 goals (2nd on the roster) and 28 points (5th).
