NHL.com continues its preview of the 2014-15 season, which will include in-depth looks at all 30 teams throughout September.
Just as Nashville Predators defenseman Seth Jones was talking about feeling less stress going into his second season because he has more certainty about his job, his surroundings, his game and the NHL as a whole, he realized all of that might not be true.
"I do have a new coach, so it's almost like doing it again," Jones said.
Jones doesn't have anything to worry about there.
Predators coach Peter Laviolette is one of Jones' biggest fans. He said Jones, who will turn 20 on Oct. 3, is ready to take the next step in his career, to being a more consistent, offensive-minded, minute-munching defenseman in Nashville.
