The Nashville Predators traded Philip Tomasino to the Pittsburgh Penguins Monday for a fourth-round pick in the 2027 NHL Draft. On today’s show, we dive deeper into the move, what it does – and doesn’t – mean about the Predators, and where the team goes from here. We also discuss New Jersey Devils forward Timo Meier’s one-game suspension for cross-checking Zachary L’Heureux in the face during Monday’s game, and we preview Wednesday night’s game against the Philadelphia Flyers.

My big issue with the Tomasino trade is that they claimed his production slowed and he got fewer minutes, but the majority of his playing time has been on the 4th line with players like McCarron, Jankowski, etc… and it would be one thing if that was his style of game, like it is somewhat L'Heureux's game. Tomasino was only ever given more minutes and chances to play with skilled players in the 21-22 season when half the roster was injured. So I'm not sure what they expected. The whole Tomasino case in Nashville feels like it can be described like the meme picture of a guy putting a stick in his own bike spokes and then wondering why he fell off the bike.
Very disturbing development regarding Preds. I am not crying loosing Tomasino, but the overall picture as such.
Cant say I have followed Preds closely that long, about from the golden 16-17 season, but this is by far the most turmoiled, chaotic stuff I have witnessed so far.
Trodz does not give the best impression atm, you cant help but think 'has Barry lost the grip'? The complex, extremely fast Brunette hockey- has Barry
really brought in the gunpowder to actually match Bruno's demands?

Yeah Barry trotz start is starting to look worse and worse. Feeling like we were spoiled with Poile.
Ann, the issue re: Askarov wasn't so much the signing of Saros, but Trotz' indication Askarov wasn't going to be given a backup job either. Trotz made it known he shopped him around in the '23 draft. When management shows a lack of faith in an employee, it often results in said employee wanting out.
Trading Tomasino for a fourth-round draft pick may very well beat getting nothing for him but when combined with having placed defenceman Dante Fabbro on waivers is a sign of a season that’s very much gone off the rails lol.
Preda need a player like Sherwood…
Thats what you get when you play dirty, he had a dirty hit on Haula earlier and then got the fafo with Timo
My big issue with the Tomasino trade is that they claimed his production slowed and he got fewer minutes, but the majority of his playing time has been on the 4th line with players like McCarron, Jankowski, etc. His style of game is a concern for me also. Go Preds!
