Predators come full circle with Andrew Burnette hired as 4th coach

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) David Poile built the Nashville Predators from the bottom up as their first general manager for the expansion franchise.

Now the man Poile hired as his first coach here has brought back another original Predator. Incoming general manager Barry Trotz announced the hiring Wednesday of Andrew Brunette, who scored Nashville's first-ever goal, as the fourth head coach in franchise history.

The Predators' circle is complete again.
