With several former Predator captains in attendance, Nashville welcomed the New Jersey Devils to Bridgestone Arena Tuesday night. Just a day after forward
The Nashville Predators have been saying for weeks they needed to find some more secondary scoring. On Monday, they finally did something about it, calling up Mark Jankowski and Egor Afanasyev, the leading and second-leading scorers, respectively, on the Milwaukee Admirals.
On Monday the Nashville Predators recalled forwards Egor Afanasyev and Mark Jankowski from Milwaukee. Tonight the two will take the ice at Bridgestone Arena as the Predators host the New Jersey Devils. Head coach Andrew Brunette talked about the growth he's seen in Afanasyev's game from training camp to now.
The Predators made a series of roster moves Monday.
The Milwaukee Admirals traveled to Des Moines for a mid morning school day game against the Iowa Wild. The teams met up last Saturday, October 28 and the Admirals earned the 2-1 win.
Egor Afanasyev put himself on every Nashville Predators fans’ radar this past season, although it was unclear what his designated role would be when he got called up to play against the Kings on March 11.
Nashville Predators fans were excited when 22-year-old Egor Afanasyev finally made his NHL debut on March 11 against the L.A. Kings. Afanasyev has generated a lot of buzz among the Predators fan base since being drafted 45th overall by Nashville in the 2019 NHL Draft.
It figures to be a wild and intense training camp for the new-look Nashville Predators, and perhaps no player will have more to gain than Egor Afanasyev.
The Nashville Predators have reassigned forward Egor Afanasyev to the AHL’s Milwaukee Admirals, according to an announcement made by the team Wednesday.
Egor Afanasyev was up on an emergency basis, and Michael McCarron’s recall was also on an emergency basis, so these do not count toward the four recalls the Predators are allowed to make after the trade deadline.
The Nashville Predators have recalled forward Egor Afanasyev from the Milwaukee Admirals ahead of tonight's game against the Los Angeles Kings. The 22 year old forward has played 55 games this season in Milwaukee and recored 13 goals and 13 assists.
Tomasino, Afanasyev shined in Milwaukee’s dominant week. After dropping games two and three of the season, the Milwaukee Admirals turned their ship around in an impressive way.
The Preds prospects took the ice at Invisalign Arena this afternoon facing off against the Tampa Bay Lightning prospects in their first game of the NHL Prospect Showcase.
Grimaldi, Novak, and Afanasyev led the way for Milwaukee this weekend. Milwaukee needed four points from two teams below them in the division standings last weekend, and that’s exactly what they got.
Egor Afanasyev has made his presence felt over the offseason, and the final roster is on the horizon for the young Russian. The Nashville Predators traded P.K.
The Anaheim Ducks have signed an Erie Otters forward to an entry-level contract, the Nashville Predators loaned a former second-round pick to the KHL, and a top prospect in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft is dominating in Russia as a 15-year-old.
