David Poile and the gang drafted this year with a nearly singular focus, and then addressed some roster holes via free agency. Is it enough? And are the pieces the correct ones?
The dust has began to settle from July's free agency period. This year's free agent season saw Nashville be more proactive than in previous years, signing some depth players that the team needed for certain roles. Going into the draft, the Nashville Predators had several holes in their organization that we had previously identified:
- Top-Six Centers
- Physicality from the Defense
- Number One Goalie
I mean, that sounds like two-thirds of the NHL right there.
