2013-2014 Nashville Predators...

when Pekka Rinne,and Shea Weber are your best players on your team,you have a solid foundation for a very good defense... i will tell you that Barry Trotz is truly underrated as a head coach,and i really hate to admit that he may be the best head coach in the NHL,because his teams over the years have lacked some scoring punch,but the defenses of the Nashville Predators have been very superior to many teams... David Legwand and Patric Hornqvist,along with Mike Fisher form a great backbone of an offense... Hornqvist is compared to Red Wings' great Tomas Holmstrom,as being a pest around the opposing goaltenders... however,he is not as good as Holmstrom was,in front of the net,just yet... give him time,and experience,and perhaps he will be as reliable as Holmstrom,but folks,he has the talent... Pekka Rinne has been a finalist for the Vezina Trophy(best goaltender in NHL),a number of times,and really has the talent to win the Vezina Trophy,and it is just a matter of time... if he does,the Predators will challenge for the Stanley Cup...
