The Predators franchise made history in a number of ways last season, but the most notable accomplishment was making it to the Stanley Cup final for the first time.

The Predators couldn't get the job done in their first Cup final appearance, though, and lost to the Penguins in an incredible six-game series.

The city of Nashville did get something out of the Cup run, though, and it was recognition as the hockey world realized how crazy the city is about hockey.

Thanks to the incredible 2016-17 campaign, Preds fans are probably very excited for the upcoming season which will be historic right from the get go.

The Predators will be celebrating their 20th season and Thursday, the team revealed the awesome logo to commemorate the milestone.

As you can see, the '0' in 20 is a Saber-Toothed Tiger which is a really cool touch.

The Predators will attempt to to make their 20th season a memorable one with another deep playoff run and with most of the roster returning, they've got a good chance of doing so.
