This is Taco Stevenson coming to you from Rumors Sports Bar in downtown Nashville and I've got another report on the Preds. 

Well, the inevitable rough patch of the season is now hopefully over as the team looks forward to the final stretch of the regular season. Since the deadline deal to bring in Dman Ryan McDonagh, the team has had a tough time adjusting the new look. It's a wee bit head-scratching as the only real changes that took place were the additions of McDonagh to the top 4 D and hard-nosed winger Dwight King taking over 3rd line duties for Mattias Tedenby. Still, even when the waters may appear to be calm, it doesn't take much to rock a boat in the FNHL. All of that said, the team looks to be settling into things..  and the timing couldn't be better because they'll need to finish strong if they hope to grab the Presidents trophy this season. 

The Farm crew in Milwaukee has kept up their league-leading pace and rumor has it that several of their top players will be joining the big club during the (hopeful) postseason run. Young stars such as Nolan Patrick, Ryan Poehling, Trent Frederic, and Thomas Chabot are all expected to play key roles. As long as the Preds don't face their true kryptonite (the Sharks lol)... things look good~ 

Alright Preds fans..  don't forget the hot sauce  #TacoTuesday
