Moments ago (announced at the Nashville Sports Council Luncheon), the Predators organization revealed that James Neal and Roman Josi will serve as the Alternate Captains for the 2016-17 season.

While Neal has served as an alternate since joining the team in the 2014-15 season, this will be Josi’s first time donning a letter full time (served as the third alternate last season). Neal and Josi will stand behind Mike Fisher who takes on the role of captain this year after the trade of Shea Weber to the Montreal Canadiens during the off-season for defenseman P.K. Subban.
