Nashville, Tenn. (January 4, 2021) - The Nashville Predators, in conjunction with the Milwaukee Admirals, announced Monday that the NHL club's American Hockey League affiliate will suspend its operations for the upcoming 2020-21 season. The decision was made due to fiscal ramifications and the current health and safety standards in the state of Wisconsin.

"The Predators look forward to continuing our long-standing relationship with the Admirals in the 2021-22 season," Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager David Poile said. "The 22-season partnership between the two organizations has proven fruitful for both parties - more than 140 Admirals players have graduated to play for the Predators in the NHL, and the Admirals have consistently ranked among the AHL's top teams, winning the Calder Cup 2004 and qualifying for the playoffs 19 times since the 1998-99 season, their first as a Nashville affiliate."
The Predators will pursue all available options to place players on other teams for the upcoming 2020-21 season.
