This afternoon the Nashville Predators shared that Rob Blake has been brought aboard as Executive Vice President of Hockey Operations.
The Hall of Fame defenseman last served as Vice President of Hockey Operations and General Manager of the Los Angeles Kings from 2017-2025 before mutually agreeing to part ways in May 2025. He’ll now join the newly appointed Chris McFarland (General Manager and President of Hockey Operations) in the Music City.
More to come…

Oh boy here we go…
Thank you Nashville! Sincerely, every LAKings fan
