Yes, hockey is getting closer
We are getting closer to playoff hockey. The next milestone is the July 10 Nashville Predators training camp.
Training camp for the Nashville Predators are almost here. This is followed by an exhibition game and then the play-offs. Does everyone get excited? I know we are.
This wait for many diehard hockey fans was like a student counting down the days to the summer break, and some even think this is all too good to be true and hockey won’t really return.
As we count down the days to the playoffs, we check in with some of our favorite Nashville Predators players and the team to see what they’ve been up to this week.
Until we have real hockey games and practices to report on, we’ll be following the team closely to see how they pass the time and stay ready to go as the season continues.
During this week’s check-in with the Predators, I looked at some of the fun things that were going on with a number of players, including a wedding for a particular defender.
Congratulations Ida and Mattias
The Predators’ made a great announcement on social media this week. Defender Mattias Ekholm and his fiancée, Ida Bjornstad, married on June 19 in Sweden. Congratulations to the happy couple.

Ekholm has always been a hugely underrated player for the Predators. Diehard fans know how important he is to the team and what he brings, but he’s often overlooked throughout the league.
When the Predators return to action, Ekholm will play a key role in strengthening a defense that was sometimes lacking.
Happy Canada Day
July 1 was officially Canada Day. This Canadian National Day celebrates the anniversary of the Canadian Constitution. Thanks, Canada, for some of our Predators players.
TY, @Canada. We owe you for these guys. ?? ?

High school versus now
Here’s the GOAT when he was a fresh-faced youth. Time certainly flies. What advice do you think the older one Pekka Rinne would have for the younger Pekka Rinne?

Rinne may become the starting goalkeeper for the Predators in Game 1 of the qualifying round against the Arizona Coyotes. Nothing is certain in who to start and it looks like there will be an open match in the training camp.
If Rinne becomes the starter again and carries the Predators to a Stanley Cup, how incredible would that be his illustrious career?
Rocco Grimaldi … Iron Man?
There was a time when Rocco Grimaldi played for another team with a less ferocious feline mascot. During his time with that team, he played in an early AHL game, then flew to California to play in an NHL game. Watch this great story below.

Grimaldi always works hard to get the most out of his services on the ice. He has increased his career with the Predators and appears to be staying for the foreseeable future. It is not difficult to understand why it is a favorite for many fans.
Free desk
July 1 is usually the time when the NHL world is buzzing with free desk calls. Not this year. Check out this great article about someone who went through the free agency process several times, former Predators goalkeeper Chris Mason.
“Free desk, it’s not easy. But at the end of the day, you will have the chance to play in the best League in the world and play the game you love. It all works out in the end. ‘

The NHL is still working out the details on off-season issues like free agency and contracts, because the pandemic creates so much uncertainty.
During these difficult times, it’s good that we can continue to follow our favorite teams on social media to provide some form of comfort and normality.
