## Resource

The four-month search is finally over as the Nashville Predators have announced Chris MacFarland as their new General Manager. The massive news came on Tuesday when the Colorado Avalanche finally gave their GM permission to talk to the Predators. Less than an hour after the rumor came about, Nashville announced that MacFarland had gotten the job. We chat about MacFarland's history and success in this league, reactions from Bill Haslam, Sean Henry and Barry Trotz, along with host Jack Williams eating his own words on a hire that he believed wouldn't happen.
