We have a couple of young studs ( Craig smith, Seth Jones, Calle Jarnkrok, GABRIEL BOURQUE, Micheal del Zotto) on the team and a couple of good players down in the minors (Filip forsberg, simon moser, austin watson, marek mazanec)
We have players in their prime (Shea Weber, Patric Hornquvist, pekka rinne)
We have veterans (Mike Fisher, Paul gaustad, Eric Nystrom)
We also have cap room to spend. I can see predators going to the playoffs this next year and then the the finals within 5 years. |

| Preds are gonna have a stacked defense once their young defensemen hit their primes. Problem is that they still don't really have any standout offensive players still and I don't see much of that in their prospects. However, if Rinne can stay healthy the whole year and play like he used to I could see the Preds back in the playoffs. |

Ebby, Calle Jarnkrok had 9 points in 12 games. 7 of which came in 7 straight games. If Peter develops him right he will be a star. Forsberg had been an mvp at the juniors (I think it was juniors) Mazanec is the reason the predators didn't totally bomb the season. simon moser has been pretty good for Switzerland.
But yes, once our defenseman are developed we will have the best group once again. |

| I think that they can be good, but I can't picture them as guys putting up huge offensive numbers or being serious game changers. |
