This shouldn’t even really be a discussion anymore, but the Nashville Predators once again will be choosing between two starting goaltenders.

Sooner or later the Nashville Predators will have to move forward with Juuse Saros, or someone else, as the top starter in net.

Life after Pekka Rinne is quickly approaching, and it’s Saros’ time to take the reins and try to continue a great history of goaltending for the Predators franchise.

But some recent remarks from Predators GM David Poile to the Midday 180 radio show raised some eyebrows as it appears there will be a training camp battle to choose the starter for the play-in series with the Arizona Coyotes.
