## Resource

Expect the unexpected! NHL insider Elliotte Friedman says that there's a "curve ball" in the Nashville Predators GM search. Patience is what's going to be needed for the Predators to land the right guy, but is that candidate in the playoffs or elsewhere? Meanwhile, in Switzerland, all four Preds players have a standout day with Roman Josi recording three points, Ryan O'Reilly scoring his third goal in three games, Justus Annunen winning his second game, and Ryan Ufko recording his first international point. Finally, we preview the three Preds prospects that will play for a Memorial Cup: Cameron Reid, Alex Huang and Hiroki Gojsic.
