NASHVILLE PREDATORS GAMES 77-82
GAME #77
Predators 3 Kings 2 Shots on Goal: 37-37 Predators sneak out with a win in Los Angeles thanks to Filip Forsberg’s game winning goal and 35 saves by Louis-Philip Guindon.

The third line for the Predators struggled ending up a -2 and generating just three shots in 12 minutes of ice time. GAME #78 Flyers 5 Predators 3 Shots on Goal: 29-22 Flyers get points from 13 different players and hold Nashville to just 22 shots on net, as they pick the win by the score of 5-3. The Predators top paring of Sean Day and Jammu Parkkonen had a rough day ending the game with no points and each a -3. The top line for the Predators would also struggle defensively finishing the game with each player a -3. The Bailey-Haula-Nash line was a bright spot for the Predators in the loss generating consistent offense and playing solid defensively. GAME #79 Predators 1 Lightning 2 Shots on Goal: 27-43 Lightning fire 43 shots, finally break through with two goals on 19 shots in the third period to defeat the Predators 2-1. Rick Nash continues his strong play with the Predators scoring Nashville’s only goal and getting six shots on net.

Jammu Parkkonen had a good game on defense for the Predators. GAME #80 Wild 2 Predators 4 Shots on Goal: 27-34 Preadtors play a solid 60 minutes, get 25 saves from Mike Smith on route to a 4-2 victory. The pairing of Holm and Martinhook was excellent on this night – being on the ice for all four goals, and ending up +4 each. At the same time the paring of Jake Milan and Simon Karlsson struggled ending up a combined -4 with no shots on goal. Brett Mohler was excellent for the Predators scoring once and registering five shots on net. Nashville’s top line had a good bounce back game. GAME #81 Sabres 3 Predators 2 Shots on Goal: 32-28 Predators drop third of their last four in tight game against the Sabres. Brent Seabrook, despite being held pointless, was a force to be reckoned with recording a game high eight shots while blocking three in a losing effort. Jake Milan and Colin Martinhook were solid defensively as the Predators third pairing. Yves Blanchette had a good game for the Predators recording an assist and four shots in the loss. Unfortunately, the rest of the offense was quite quiet in this one. GAME #82 Predators 0 Sharks 3 Shots on Goal: 19-34 Predators end their season on a low note managing just 19 shots in a 3-0 shutout loss to the Sharks. Zack Gleason and Jamie McGinn each had a goal and an assist in the win. Pontus Aberg was a rare bright spot for the Predators in this one managing six shots despite being held pointless. The Predators centers also did a decent job in this one, but the wingers had a rough day as the Sharks’ defenders did a great job of shutting them down. Mike Smith made 31 of 34 saves in what may be his last game in a Predators uniform or even in the NHL. |

PREDATORS YEAR IN REVIEW
It was a tough year for the Predators who would finish in the bottom five for the third straight year with 74 points. However, there were positives to take away from the year. The farm system appears stronger than it has been in recent years with the Predators ECHL affiliate finished 41-20-7, a record which was second best in the ECHL. Unfortunately, the Milwaukee Admirals of the AHL had a dismal season finishing with just 60 points - second worst in the AHL. At the NHL level, the Predators got good seasons out of young prospects Sean Day, Jammu Parkkonen, and Ed Sharp who the Predators hope will become part of a winning core years down the line. Nicklas Backstrom, Rick Nash, and Filip Forsberg were among some of the veterans who played solid hockey in Nashville this past season. The Predators will look to build upon this past season to put together a better 2022-2023 season. Team MVP: Nicklas Backstrom |

PREDATORS 2022 NHL ENTRY DRAFT
1st round, 3rd overall Pick: Brandon Willows, RW, Right, 5’11 172, Brandon Boxcars: 72GP 32-19-51 (WHL) Description: Small, cerebral winger from British Columbia. Possessing sick hands, a great shot and a responsible two way-game, it easy to see Willows as a future first liner or even all-star. Phenomenal with the puck on his stick, can make the best defenders look silly. Has an accurate shot, but could work on its power. Shows great decision making in both ends of the ice. Sometimes struggles to find the open spaces on the ice. Sometimes struggles to make the simple passes. Is a good skater, has good top end speed and an explosive first few steps. Still needs to work on his edge work. Is a great one on one defender. Will frustrate his opponents by breaking up plays. Displays pretty good positional awareness in his own end. Below average physical game. Needs to go to the dirty areas of the ice more often.

With great hands and fluent skating, Danek has the potential to be a top six winger but he will need to put a lot of work into his defensive game first. Great with the puck on his stick, can keep the puck away from defenders. Great shot – heavy and accurate. Reads the play well in his own end. Is a decent passer. Projects to be an above average skater at the NHL level. Won’t blow you away with his speed, but has good agility and balance. Below average one on one defender. Poor physical game which is hurt further by his lack of strength. Looks lost at times in his own zone. Needs to go to the dirty areas of the ice more often.

Below average one on one defender. Has an active stick in his own zone and uses his long reach well. Below average physical game. Sometimes appears lost in the defensive zone.

Very good vision and puck skills make his potential as a playmaking defenseman high. Decent shot but has trouble finding the open areas of the ice. Projects to be a touch below average as a skater. Good one on one defender, but will struggle with some of the faster and stronger guys in the NHL. Uses his reach well and frusturates his opponents with his ability to break up plays.

Possessing good instincts in the offensive zone and a decent enough defensive game, Torchenyuk has the potential to be a regular in the NHL but concerns over his skating and upside remain. Effective at moving the puck and sees the ice well. Has a bomb for a shot, should be a mainstay on the powerplay. Is a good one on one defender, but below average foot speed will mean faster players will give him fits at the next level. Below average physical game. Positions himself well in his own end. Has trouble sensing danger and will get caught pinching from time to time. Needs to engage physically along the boards more often. Projects to be a below average skater at the next level. Needs to get stronger.

Jonsson has a big body to grow into and has shown flashes of brilliance on both sides of the puck but is a long way from putting everything toghether. Is very good with the puck on his stick for a defenseman. Should be effective at carrying the puck. Is a decent passer, but below average vision hurt his offensive upside. Possesses an average shot.

Decent one on one defender. Limited offensive upside – has below average vision and passing skills. Average shot. Is decent at working the area in front of the goalie.

Where did this kid rank on the leaderboard in the WHL, just to get a sense of how low the scoring is?

80 75 75 75 73 Top 5 goal scorers were: 42 41 39 39 37 The point totals are still relatively low given his ratings, but again I trust the ratings more so than the stats here. |

First two guys picked way better than the guy you picked...in your eyes? Worse? Overall, how is the AI at picking/drafting players? Care to share where your Top 15 got picked...if you have time? Thanks!

I would have drafted Brant Kell 1st overall if I could. He was first in the draft rankings throughout the year (which matters quite a bit to me), had a 9.0a potential, and good stats. I had Willows 2nd (above Dewar, mainly because 6.5/9.0 > 5.0/8.5) AI is excellent (probably a little too good) at drafting players since I'm pretty sure they can effectively "see" a players true potential rating. I had a general list of players I wanted, but I don't really have a ranking or anything. It would line up similarly to how they got picked anyways since I base it heavily off the in game draft rankings which usually line up reasonably well with players true potentials.
