Today the Nashville Predators made 2 blockbuster trades. One getting them 24 year old Keith Yandle and the other getting them 25 year old Alexander Edler. Both are all-star defenders. Also the Predators acquired Derrick Brassard, Matt Beleskey, Eric Fehr and Blake Geoffrion. All of them are young forwards that are RFA's and we hope to have their services for a long time.
At this moment Yandle and Edler will be partnered together for the top defensive pairing. Brassard will center the 2nd line. Fehr will play Left Wing on the 3rd line. Beleskey will play on and off on the 4th line. And Geoffrion will start in our minor league system.
Players that we dealt them for were Jeff Skinner, Matt Carle, TJ Oshie, Andrei Kostitsyn, Grant Clitsome and Jared Knight. We would like to wish them the best with their new clubs
Even though we just made 2 huge trades it doesnt mean we are done trading. We are still looking for a RW to play with Jonathan Toews. Also we are looking for a Starting Goalie! Brendan Morrison, Radim Vrbata, Sergei Samsonov and Stefan Noesen are OTB.
