An elite-level, number one center continues to be the biggest hole the Nashville Predators need to fill before they become contenders again. The big question is how do they find one? Are they best served trying to develop Cody Glass, Juuso Parssinen, or Tommy Novak into that player? Should they swing big at a top free agent or trade target? Or do they take their chances in the draft?

On today's episode, we look at the pros and cons of each route towards getting that elite playmaker, and debate whether any Preds prospect could someday become that game-changing player. Plus, we take a closer look at the pieces the Preds already have, and we ponder how much work this roster needs before they're back in the playoff conversation.
