We’ve long been the folks pushing the idea that this club is very handsome. It’s been our gimmick for many years now. There’s no reason to be uptight about it; these players have to take great care of themselves, and the Predators have acquired and developed players that fit the mold. Frankly, it’s fun on this side to bring up.
Smiles are great. Hockey smiles are particularly great, and they are often accompanied by hugs. And in my mind, we’ve long had a leader in the clubhouse in the category of “Best Smile Ever”. It belongs to Mattias Ekholm.
