No idea why they continue to play Mazanec over Sarros in spot starts.

Offense has been great as of late. Finally clicking.

Looks like the best years for the Preds have passed. I'd say they should be sellers at the deadline. Get what ya can for Johansen (who hasn't turned out to be very good for the Preds). I doubt they'd find a taker for Pekka with the contract but trade him if ya can get a good enough return.

Who needs a big 70 point center anyways.

15 goals in 81 games as a Pred. 63 points total (which is pretty good). But he has not been good this year really.

He's broken 70 points once (and it was 71) in his 5 seasons and likely won't get there this year.

I'm not saying he's not a good player, but he's been a big disappointment so far.

This is insane. They have a very strong young core to this team. They are very banged up (Neal, Josi, Subban) right now and still competitive in every game. Despite the disappointment this season compared to expectations thus far they are 1 point of out the playoffs in a very strong division.

Subban and Ekholm locked up until 2022
Josi until 2020
Ellis until 2019

Forsberg just signed a new deal and is under contract until 2022. Johansen is 24 and is a RFA after this season, trading him would be an absolute disaster. Rinne is still a top tier goaltender in the league and it's starting to look like Saros may turn out to be as well.

Arvi, Fiala, Watson and Sissons look great and are all still on entry level contracts which means they will be RFAs.

This post blows my mind. A short winning streak and they're in the playoffs. Get healthy and can easily make a solid playoff run.

He's leading the team in points.
