The Nashville Predators are a professional hockey team based out of the Music City. Nashville actually has a rich history of hockey that no one seems to know about. In 1995, the New Jersey Devils almost re-located to Nashville, but eventually decided to
stay put. So in 1997, the NHL granted Nashville an expansion team. The Predators got their name after remains of a
saber-toothed tiger were found while excavating in the 1970's. In 2007, Nashville almost lost their beloved team, but their devoted fans
rallied and quickly found a new owner.
Did you hear that the
Nashville Predators where almost sold a few years back? Yeah, but the Nashville fans love their team, and they wouldn't stand for anybody putting their hands on their damn team. That's awesome, why doesn't Hamilton just buy out the St. Louis
Blue's or some
gay team like that? That's a great question...
