The Hockey News’ Emma Lingan talks Nashville Predators with Jeremy K. Gover of AP-Radio on the It’s All Your Fault podcast.
On this week’s episode, we discuss the report from NHL insider Kevin Weekes that Predators blue chip goaltending prospect has requested a trade. The request itself isn’t all that surprising, but why now? Does this show Askarov‘s immaturity and further prove that he isn’t ready for the NHL?

The Predators selected Askarov with the No. 11 overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft, making him the highest-drafted goalie that year. With that in mind, we take a look at the Predators’ draft history and uncover some interesting trends when it comes to Nashville selecting goaltenders with early-round picks.
Finally, we break down the Predators’ trade of Cody Glass and two draft picks to the Pittsburgh Penguins for forward Jordan Frasca and discuss how the optics of the deal don’t necessarily reflect reality.
