Nashville Predators Trade Ryan Johansen to the Colorado Avalanche

On Saturday, incoming GM Barry Trotz announced that the Nashville Predators traded Ryan Johansen to the Colorado Avalanche. On today's Locked On Predators, we break down the trade deal and its impact on the Predators moving forward. We debate whether Nashville would have bought out Johansen if a suitable trade partner hadn't been found. We share our thoughts on the Preds retaining salary in the deal and how Alex Galchenyuk may or may not fit into Nashville's future plans. We discuss how Johansen might fit in well with the Avs and how the Predators will fill a Joey size hole in the roster. Finally, we take our best guesses as to what Barry Trotz will do with the extra cap space. Could there be another big move in the works?
