It’s here! Game 1 of the 2022-23 NHL Season kicked off half a world away in Prague, and the Predators were eager from puck drop to establish their presence, and it wouldn’t take long for the Predators to make their presence felt. After a flurry of opportunities in the offensive zone, Keifer Sherwood tipped a Mattias Ekholm pass to give Nashville their first goal of the young season, assisted by Ekholm and Ryan McDonaugh. Two points for two of the newest additions to the team within a few minutes of starting? I think John Hynes and company will take that.
