The Nashville Predators finally traded forward Juuso Parssinen, and on today’s show we take a closer look at the deal with the Colorado Avalanche and how the move fits in with the Predators future. We look back at Parssinen’s time with Nashville and speculate on what led to his limited ice time and eventual trade. We discuss the recent moves Trotz has made and what one thing the Predators GM could do that would really cause us concern. Finally we preview a big Central Division game tonight against Kyle Connor, Mark Scheifele, Connor Hellebuyck, and the league leading Winnipeg Jets.

I understand that these aren't "his guys" but it is alarming that with all the young talent in this org only one of those players has taken a step forward (ZLH), one is stagnant (Evangelista), and the rest have been jettisoned. Several of these jettisoned players have instantly looked better elsewhere. I honestly think this is more of a reflection on Bruno than Trotz. Bruno seems to lack any trust in young guys and punishes them much harder for making the same mistakes the other guys do by freezing them out of the lineup. If you are Trotz and you see this then of course you have to trade them for whatever you can before they lose all value.
By itself I understand the trade and if a guy doesn't fit, then they don't fit. The concern is the future of the team. Who is the future? L'Heureux, Roest, Wilsby? Nashville has 9 draft picks in 2025, 3 in the first round. This is a rebuild…Bruno and Trotz just need to admit it. None of the young core/depth is what they want, so they are removing all of them and collecting draft picks to choose who they want. We won't see the Bruno and Trotz team until 2027-2028 at the earliest.
My issue with the thought of Parssinen for Hinistroza is that Trotz is also on record with comments about "getting younger and faster." I understand there is likely a lot that we don't fully know at this point, but even still he hasn't given people a lot of confidence to believe that statement. The best we had to back that up was the rumor that Nashville was in on Dylan Cozens. All of the moves that Trotz has made have run counter to that idea. I'm onboard with getting younger and keeping "the core" but until we start seeing the evidence of "getting younger and faster" the future just looks a bit bleak
I would like to see Trotz make the following moves next: Lauzon (and maybe a late round pick) to Vancouver for Aatu Räty (C). Call up Jake Livingstone RD. Play Josi at LD, he is not as effective at RD in d-zone, pair with Livingstone. Räty play either in AHL or 3rd or 4th line to start.

Thanks for the breakdown! I have a quick question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
