Nashville Predators

Making it to the Stanley Cup finals, the Nashville Predators might not have to do much to their team. Just tinker here and there. But the point of this was to see what the Isles would have to give to get that one forward piece their missing.

The Predators have two big deals to make this offseason. Ryan Johansson and Viktor Arvidsson. And they only have $17 million to make it happen. Oh, they also have a number of miscellaneous RFA’s and UFA’s to figure out too. Like captain Mike Fisher.

With a 55 point freshman season last year and a 61 point effort this season Arvidsson makes an attractive target for the Isles.

Prying him away from Nashville might not be the easiest task to perform, but maybe the combination of the Isles Josh Bailey, Josh Ho-Sang and their first round might just be enough.

Bailey had himself a fantastic year and carries a lightweight cap hit of $3.3 million this season. Ho-Sang is full of promise and barely has a cap hit to speak of. It’s the right mix of veteran production and youth production bundled in a nice and cheap cap hit.
