Former Nashville Predators head coach and general manager Barry Trotz was inducted into the team's Golden Hall on Thursday, October 29, 2026, during a pregame ceremony at Bridgestone Arena before the Predators faced the Washington Capitals. Trotz, who served as the franchise's first head coach from 1998 to 2014 and later as general manager, was honored for his foundational role in building the organization.
During the ceremony, longtime Predators executive David Poile assisted Trotz with his Golden Hall jacket. The induction recognizes Trotz's 16 seasons behind the bench, during which he guided the team to multiple playoff appearances and established a competitive culture in Nashville.
