Big news at Main Street Media: We're adding @PredsNHL coverage to @MainNashville. Here's what you can expect from me this season and how to follow along ⬇️ #Preds mainstreetmediatn.com/articles/mains…
The #Preds had to choose between Juuse Saros and Yaroslav Askarov in part because their prime years were likely to overlap. There's a chance @umichhockey commit Jack Ivankovic's development timeline winds up being a better fit for the organization: mainstreetmediatn.com/articles/mains…
The 2025-26 NHL schedule is out. #Preds open at home against Columbus on Thursday, Oct. 9. Here is Nashville's full slate:

Cam Angus saw his summer vacation turn to turmoil last month as the war between Israel and Iran broke out. The Hendersonville graduate was in Tel Aviv and Mevaseret Zion for most of June and the start of July with the Israel Elite Hockey League. mainstreetmediatn.com/articles/count…
New @PredsNHL defenseman Nic Hague is here! He's excited to get a chance in the Preds' top four after being traded from the Golden Knights and signing a four year contract here as an RFA @1025TheGame

Egor Surin, Andrew Gibson and Cole O'Hara helped Team Blue win Saturday's #Preds Future Stars Game. Read about those three standouts and who impressed from Team Gold here ⬇️ mainstreetmediatn.com/articles/mains…
Egor Surin had a goal and an assist in the #Preds Futures Stars Game. His English is also improving, which gave us this gem of an interview:
Team Blue takes the #Preds Future Stars Game 3-2 in regulation and 2-1 in the final shootout. Cole O’Hara went between the legs for a ridiculous goal near the end of regulation. Here’s Andrew Gibson finishing it off in the shootout.
Ryker Lee with an absolute snipe for a shootout goal. Team Blue leads Team Gold after the first half and shootout. Egor Surin had the only 5-on-5 goal #Preds
Brady Martin gets on the board at 5-on-5 by backhanding a rebound past Matteo Drobac. Matthew Wood had the assist.
The #Preds Future Stars Game is underway in Bellevue. Lots of talent here today, including Brady Martin and six other first-round picks.
Happy Fourth of July! 🎆 While the #Preds haven't made wholesale changes, this offseason hasn't been completely devoid of fireworks. Analyzing their defensive additions, lack of center depth and the opportunity ahead for several young forwards: mainstreetmediatn.com/articles/mains…
