"We are excited to partner with El Jefe radio for a second season of Predators hockey, allowing us the opportunity to grow our fanbase in the expanding Latin American market around Nashville," Nashville Predators Senior Director of Broadcasting Bob Kohl said. "El Jefe will help fuel this growth even further by taking their regular-season coverage from eight games last year to all 82 this season, and we couldn't be happier."
"We feel excited, humbled and so grateful for the opportunity to partner with the world-class Predators organization again this year," El Jefe General Manager Wendy Silva said. "Our team is super ready to broadcast all of the play-by-play, puck drops and goals for home and away games to our El Jefe radio listening communities."
The Preds will celebrate their annual Hispanic Heritage Night tonight, Sept. 30 when they play the Tampa Bay Lightning at 5 p.m. at Bridgestone Arena. Special festivities include a Hispanic Heritage-themed Plaza Party before the game, special Predators warmup jerseys and more. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit
