AUDIO: Predators reflect on season, look forward to bright future

After the Nashville Predators were eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs far earlier than expected, the team cleaned out their lockers on Saturday morning and transitioned into the offseason.

Ryan Johansen tried to put a finger on why the team couldn’t stay consistent in the playoffs.

Kyle Turris spoke to his need to elevate his game in the playoffs after his line underperformed during the team’s run.

Mike Fisher confirmed he would go back into retirement, while Scott Hartnell left the door open to returning to Nashville while also saying he’ll consider retiring.

Ryan Ellis and P.K. Subban both noted that the team will grow from this season and carry their bright future to a potential Cup run in 2019.
