The Nashville Predators were a busy bunch this afternoon making a couple of trades. In the first, they sent tough guy forward, Josh Gratton, to the Flyers for defenseman Tim Ramholt. The addition gives the team a little more depth on the blueline for a player that was falling down the depth chart, losing spots to other grittier forwards.

Future Considerations

In the second transaction, the Predators acquired depth forward, Hugh Jessiman, from the Rangers for futures. Jessiman has toiled in the Rangers' system for quite some time already, not being able to crack it full time with the big club. In Nashville, he may find some space to hone his skills and possibly get some big league ice-time.
