2012 Playoff Picks: Nashville Predators

Nashville is in good shape for a playoff run, but the team is completely lopsided from a fantasy hockey perspective.

In Shea Weber & Ryan Suter, they have two top choices for defensemen.  In Pekka Rinne, they have a top-flight goaltender capable of winning games by himself.

However, the forward group lacks individual prowess after Martin Erat.  There are plenty of excellent players in the bunch, just no-one you’d pick to score 25 points down the stretch.
