The Predators seem to have the Midas Touch this coming season as everything they touch appears to be turning gold. Well not everything, just their helmets. Originally used for “Golden Saturdays,” the Preds’ 2016 uniforms will official have them looking more and more like Lemonheads.

The Predators have taken their successes to new heights over the last couple of years and that means more people are interested in watching hockey.
