NHL Preseason Highlights | Predators vs. Hurricanes – September 28, 2025

on Saturday. Pretty darn close to your opening night lineup. I hope the Hurricanes are sharp early than your Vikings were in Ireland today. They must not have realized they were playing at 9:30 in the morning, although whatever the time it was in Ireland. Uh, it happens. The roar got off on the right start and right now it’s Nashville getting a shot through right away and getting the puck is Azie Wise Black who he and his brother Oasis in the lineup tonight for Andrew Brunette. Heavy hearts for the Wise Blat family. There’s Carolina now coming the other way is Martin Hook. Felix Storm and Mido took big steps from their first game a home game to their second game which was also home. Now Stanovven wins it back in Blake shot from the right circle right into the equipment which eventually allowed Kerry to draw the trip. So the Canes get a two-minute power play and a chance to go to work here. Benori quarterbacking it. He gets his shot through tipped out in front. avoids a heavy hit delivered there by Baron and now a chance by Finsori that’s put on and save is made by an will keep this one in. Fans goes for a change that the A group that we’ll see in the regular season had against Florida loved him. We will get a chance to see more. Now here’s a chance for Kerade on the wing as he hammers one as the good work by Walker to keep this one in. Cely will get to it. Send it behind the net for Martin. Martinook looking for someone to hand it off to. Back for Cely. He can’t handle the pass now. Cely in a skate race with O’Hara. O’Hara is going to win it. He’ll drop it back. Chance for Nashville in the doorstep. They’ll score. [Applause] Dylan Gamrell threw it out in front as Nashville does a good job of getting to the front of the net. And it’s hammered home by Daniel Carr. The 33y old with one assist this preseason now has a goal to go along with it. Well, I think Nashville did a heck of a job. They’ll reverse this one. Skyler Grindmore just inside his blue line trying to clear. Can’t do it. That was kept in by Nick Blankenberg. Now the Kings get a chance to get it out. And here comes Robinson. Twoon one. Robinson holding trying to feather it across. They score. Oh, brilliant patience by Eric Robinson setting it up and a tap in for Felix Unersa part of it. But Unersorum started the whole play. He’s a winger, not a center this year. And wingers so often I I talk about it often, Mike. They’ve got to slash across the ice because it creates numbers and it creates speed. And he did it at his own blue line. got the puck to Robinson and then made a beline to the far post and it took Eric Robinson. Exact same makeup in DNA and also does a certain player who wears number 20 now Nashville coming the other way and a massive save made. Tied at one. Really good save. Primo’s best moments have really probably been moving side to side. These are good reps for Jordan Stall, you know, when he’s of course going to start every kill taking faceoffs. for now. Now O’Hara puts it in front. Primo flashes the leather and hangs on in the high slot on the power play. O’Hara again setting things up. This one hammered toward the net bykoff and Fedar Svetkov is going to stay off the scoreboard other than a shot. Nashville won a board battle. Eventually O’Hara is there’s a picture of it. I’ve got to find it. 5 seconds left here on the Canes power play. One minute left in the period. Now a chance for the bank as the power play expires. Save. Oh, that was a really good look from or from Yeah, Unger who’s been quite good. Suzuki got it to him. Suzuki was on the half wall and Unersorm scored a tap in, but he helped to create it from Robinson. Did a really good job of finding Lebank. Lebank knew that to get the shot through and better in the seven periods he’s played. Both teams went 0 for two on the power play in the first period. We are tied at one and here we go. Second period underway and a penalty right off the bat. Flips it to the corner. He and Martin go to give chase. Stall gets a piece of it out of the box. Comes Gamrell and he’s got a step into the cane zone. Backhand put right on. Excellent work done. Hustling back by Alexi Hosami. Sending it up for Leang. Bounce free and opportunity here for Nashville. on the break. Shot right out of Primo with an absolute robbery again on Smith and then this shot put on Nashville making a change. Kes working right in. Here’s an opportunity as it’s Jo. He wanted that to get through and Anin gets a piece. Carolina setting up now. Blake ripped across. They score. Oh, beautiful tick tac Nadau. Carolina with a power play goal. The trip Tracy reverse jinx works and it’s 2-1 Carolina. 502 left in the second on the tape puck movement and Bradley Nadau I mean Anan and bit on the shot before the pass ever came his way. Oh Jackson Blake sold the shot. NHL guy, but I mean Walker when you look at Shawn Walker that is has 10 shots at the net. Stan Coven’s gone eight and four in the faceoff circle. Piouette by Ronan Cely. Now Robinson throws it in and finds its way to Stanovven. Blake with a shot and making an arm save as Anin. Rebound from behind the net and Aninan will hold the post. They’ll be in Florida tomorrow night, 6:00 faceoff here on the Hurricanes Radio Network where I know Trip Tracy will be there. Handled, rolled in and batted away by Primo as Carr got it back in and a big hit delivered and Carolina with a response and everybody jumping in. Grall getting into it. But Oasis Wise Black and Kevin Le Bank now Wise Blackblat getting a right across. Le Bank still has his helmet on. Wislat doesn’t now. Coming over the top is Le Bank. Wise Blat with a couple of shots with his hand. It’s being tied up as he’s got Lebank’s jersey. Now Leank comes over with a right. Still scrumming right in front of the Hurricanes bench. Wise Blat with a couple of punches. Winesman letting him go till they tire themselves out. Le Bank with a good right. Wise Black holding on trying to switch hands here. And now Le Bank will just opportunity to center it but Cole Smith sealed off Mido. And now coming the other way. It’s Nashville. And a shot right on by Schaefer. And the save’s made. Really commit to the shot. Flipped away by Gamble into the Kane zone. Now looking for a pass but getting all the way back to make a play. and intercepted. Now the Canes are going to spring Suzuki. Suzuki on the back hand. He’ll shovel that out in front and in. He’ll make the save. Puck still loose. Suzuki has another whack at it. Pass from Fenori to find Suzuki from just inside his own blue line. Suzuki had a back checker coming, but I would have liked to have seen him stay on the forehand, maybe fire. It would have been a more deadly shot. Great pass from Dominic Fencor. 518 left in regulation. Carolina with a two-1. He had time to settle it instead of just wiring it around the boards. It’s the beauty of video. He’s had a good game and he’s got a bright future. Trip 27 seasons for you and for me. We’re in double digits now. Here’s a shut out from the score. Oh, Carolina State Coven creates the turnover and then ripped into the slot. Bradley eating it with the shot. Flat out NHL release and finish. I mean Blake and Stan Coven have been super in this game. I think Nashville thought when Blake or Stan Coven from Blake got it below the goal line that he was going to carry it around the net. He went out the short side to Nadau and Nadau especially to see some of the real hurricanes of the future take steps as the preseason has gone along. Nadau I’ve mentioned Storm as this game has gone along. It’s very bright. Here’s a chance for Nashville. They’ll score as Reed Schaefer got in between the circles and he goes over the blocker side and makes this a one-goal game again with 321 left here in the third. When Nashville’s been on in this hockey game, they’ve had outstanding chemistry and Schaefer just a gorgeous release. Receives the puck from O’Hara. O’Hare’s second assist of the game. And and now face off at center ice. Nashville rolls it into the cane zone. Will play this one free. And now drop back. Martin Nook for Stall right back to Martin centering it out in front. Nobody’s there. Carolina will keep this one in. Wra Alexis Lego with Leoo. And Carolina goes back up four to two. This has got to be an exceptional moment for him. You know, Nashville’s just made it a one-goal game. He jumps in as a defenseman. The stall line had started it in transition. They all went to the net. But if LGO hadn’t jumped and got a goal barrage in a minute 12, Kane’s with two, Nashville with one. And now here’s a low drive that’s blocked out in front. Rebound comes away. Venor paid the price. And so he’s going to make his way to the Kane’s bench in a little bit of discomfort, but he’s on the right side of center ice. 3 seconds left. Nashville with a long stretch pass. Going to try to get a shot through. They don’t. A drop pass intercepted by Blake in the first time this preeason. [Music]

Bradly Nadeau potted two goals while Jackson Blake chipped in with two assists as the Carolina Hurricanes earned a 4-2 victory over the Nashville Predators. Cayden Primeau recorded the win, stopping 18 of 20 shots faced on the night.
