After a season that saw #11 struggle offensively on a second line that never found its footing, the Nashville Predators have to decide what exactly to do this offseason with restricted free agent Luke Kunin. On today's episode, Nick and Ann jump into the complicated relationship between Kunin and the Predators. We discuss why Kunin dodged the "healthy scratch" other struggling Preds players like Eeli Tolvanen fell victim to and what aspects of Kunin's game kept him in the line up. We talk about what needs to change moving forward when it comes to a second line that couldn't get offensive traction all season and whether we think Kunin is worth a sizable qualifying offer from the front office. We also take a look at restricted free agent Yakov Trenin. Trenin has been a steal for Nashville so far - what kind of contract do we expect the Predators to offer this "identity" player? Tommy Novak, Cody Glass, and Devin Cooley are also RFAs, and we discuss whether we think these players will get a chance to stay with the Predators organization down the road. And it is Game One of the Stanley Cup Finals tonight! Nick and Ann break down the key match ups, predict tonight's outcome, and tell you who we think will lift the Stanley Cup at the end of this series.
