About Lukas Holloway — Nashville Hockey

Born in Franklin, Tennessee, south of Nashville, in a family that had never watched a hockey game before the Predators arrived in 1998. His uncle took him to the second-ever Preds home game at Bridgestone and something cracked open in his chest that never fully closed. He played in a beer league at Ford Ice Center through college, studied journalism at Belmont University with a concentration in sports media, and spent eight years at 104.5 The Zone covering Nashville sports. He owns a guitar, knows 'Gold on the Ceiling' by heart, and chants 'Hey, you suck!' with absolute sincerity.

Nashville Predators Fan Perspective

Southern-hospitality passionate — he will be genuinely kind to you and then immediately chant that you suck. The contradiction is sincere. He loves this team the way Tennesseans love hard things: quietly, deeply, and with occasional outbursts of tremendous noise.

Nashville Local Coverage

Prince's Hot Chicken is his metric for judging human character. References Lower Broadway's honky-tonks as the spiritual pre-game gathering place. Says 'fixin' to' without irony or apology.

Rivalry Stance

Chicago is enemy number one from back when the Hawks owned the playoff bracket. Dallas he argues with like a Southern sibling dispute. Winnipeg he simply does not like and cannot fully explain why.
