Nashville Predators Tickets

Nashville Predators

Missing the playoffs for a second straight season stung, but Nashville still has the pieces to turn things around behind captain Roman Josi and winger Filip Forsberg. New general manager Chris MacFarland, hired away from the Colorado Avalanche this offseason, has already reshaped the roster with the goal of making Nashville Predators hockey tickets truly worth the price of admission. Fans tracking Nashville Predators players through training camp will see a team with real motivation to prove last year was the outlier. Find Nashville Predators tickets at Event Tickets Center.

Nashville Predators at Western Conference

Nashville finished tenth in the Western Conference last season after a horrific October dug too deep a hole to climb out of, a frustrating step back for a franchise that once looked ready to contend every spring. Pekka Rinne remains the standard for franchise goaltending legends, while Josi and Forsberg have carried the current era as the two most accomplished Predators of their generation. Juuse Saros gives Nashville a chance most nights, even when the roster in front of him has struggled.

Nashville Predators at Bridgestone Arena

Opened in 1996 and known to fans simply as Smashville, the arena sits blocks from Broadway's honky-tonks, feeding a pregame ritual of live music and standing-room bars before puck drop. Capacity runs close to 17,000, and the crowd noise rivals any building in the league once the home team gets rolling, especially when a catfish lands on the ice after a big goal. Anyone planning a trip can check the Bridgestone Arena seating chart before locking in seats.

Nashville Predators Schedule

This season's docket grows to 84 games as the NHL returns to a schedule length last used in the early 1990s, and the home opener lands on October 1 against the Minnesota Wild. The rivalry with the Chicago Blackhawks returns to the calendar on December 3, one of the more anticipated dates on the regular-season schedule given how often the two sides have clashed over the years. Nashville will need fast starts this time, a direct answer to last season's slow start.

Nashville Predators Playoffs and Stanley Cup

The only trip to the Stanley Cup finals came in 2017, when a defensive roster rode Pekka Rinne all the way to a loss in six games against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Predators have made the playoffs 16 times since entering the league in 1998, though the last two seasons have interrupted what had been a near-annual occurrence. With Josi, Forsberg, and Saros all still playing at a high level, the pieces for another run remain in place even after a difficult year.
