As we previously first reported two weeks ago at the end of February, the Nashville Predators organization has recently taken an interest in scouting the Philadelphia Flyers' top minor league affiliate Lehigh Valley Phantoms. They had one scout at the Phantoms' recent home games.

Sunday in Hershey (NHL-Washington), there were a handful of scouts on hand at Giant Center scouting the Hershey Bears and Phantoms (PHI) - including not one, but two representatives (presumed scouts) from the Nashville Predators organization in attendance.

The Predators are now scouting Phantoms' road games in addition to their appearance at recent home games. Their increased presence might suggest there's something brewing between the Flyers and Predators organizations, which in the past two weeks has seen the rumor mill spinning as the NHL's trade deadline approaches in April.
