Notes:
Former journeyman Paul Fenton (who played for six NHL teams over his eight year career) has found incredible stability in Nashville.  He was hired as the Predators director of player personnel 13 years ago and was promoted to assistant general manager four years ago.  Despite those smaller titles, he has actually been in charge of player acquisition the whole time, and has currently assembled a crop of defensemen and goaltenders who can skate with anyone.  With a couple more impact forwards, the Predators are serious Cup contenders.
