The team has a great marketing machine that knows the right notes to strike in this town. The success of the team on the ice helps a lot but the team really plugs into the local community in ways a lot of teams take for granted. If it wasn't for their dedication to making this "Smashville" they could end up being a lot like the Thrashers.

The Predators also do not have much in the way of star power. They have a group of good and very good players but no superstar.
If they were to ever get such a player that would only help the popularity.
