One of the first things Poile said he wanted to accomplish once the free agency signing period began was adding a couple of defensemen to the Nashville Predators roster.

Poile announced that he had signed Benning to a two-year contract worth $2M. This news came on the heels that Predators had signed fellow defenseman, Mark Borowiecki.
