Former Predator Sherwood ties Jeremy Lauzon's hits record for one season set last season. Sherwood has 383 hits in 14 fewer games (65) than Lauzon did last year (79)
#Canucks Kiefer Sherwood has been credited with 10 hits tonight. He has officially tied the NHL record for hits in a season with 383

Matt Duchene's buyout hit increases $1 million next year to $6.56m, Kyle Turris remains at $2.0m, and the final year of Mattias Ekholm's retained salary of $250,000, leading to a hit of $8.81m for the three former players. That would be $1.31m more than the $7.5m cap increase

With Wilsby's deal of $775,000 (two-way in 25-26, one-way 26-27), #Smashville is projected at $80.65 million in cap hit next season, leaving $14.85 million in space. Pending the league decision, Johansen's $4 mil retained comes off the books next year

San Jose will only be 3 points behind Nashville after tonight barring the biggest of miracles. So there's that!

The Preds have a three game winning streak for just the second time this year, and have a fellow basement-dweller in town on Tuesday. The Sharks - with one Yaroslav Askarov likely in net - are next.

On the second stop of the post-holiday break, the Nashville Predators (11-19-7) were unable to meet the challenge of one of the best teams in the NHL, the Winnipeg Jets (27-10-1) in a 3-0 defeat. https://t.co/kNx3dZYzLP

Nobody has had more goals against, shots against, or expected goals against than Juuse Saros, who has 9.6 goals saved above expected, 9th in GAR, and team that has the lowest goal support in the NHL. Hence the 6-11-5 record. #smashville
Even with Juuse Saros' cap hit growing to $7.74 million next season, Barry Trotz got tremendous value for the #Smashville netminder. Even with his '24-25 raise, he still doesn't crack the top 5 in goaltender AAV. (credit: @EvolvingWild and @PuckPedia)

Juuse Saros currently takes up 5.7% of the #Smashville cap hit this season. It should be 8.3% next season with the estimated salary cap of $92.5 million
It's no more insane than a $100m salary cap (coming soon!) Notable goalie deals *as % of the Yr 1 cap* 15.3% Luongo (2007) 13.2% Price (2017) 12.4% SHESTERKIN (2025) 12.3% Lundqvist (2014) 12.3% Bobrovsky (2019) 12.1% Lundqvist (2009) 11.7% Vasilevskiy (2020) 11.7% Rinne (2013)

It happened again. A third period lead turned into yet another 3-2 loss, as the Nashville Predators continued their dive to the bottom of the NHL standings, losing the first half of a back-to-back to Toronto. https://t.co/MWKq9hOSIg

Hey Andrew Brunette: tonight is the night you start holding your veterans and free agent acquisitions accountable. The bottom six should not be your most effective lines night in and night out. Your high-dollar guys are causing these problems, you have to address it
