The players were on hand to play some street hockey and meet some real big Predators fans that they heard were in the area. Predators assistant coach Peter Horachek was on hand to survey the action from his home turf, as resident of Sullivan Farms. Gnash also stopped in to wish everyone a happy hockey season.
