Predators' Andrew Brunette March Madness bracket. Here's who he picked to win it all

You can forgive Andrew Brunette for forgetting to fill out his NCAA March Madness bracket until this morning. The Nashville Predators host a big game against the Seattle Kraken at Bridgestone Arena on March 19, a game that could pull them even in the wild card race in the Western Conference. But the Predators coach still managed to complete a bracket based on what he's seen this season − and he's picked an unsurprising winner.

"I rushed through it today, but I have Arizona winning it," Brunette told media after morning skate. Arizona (32-2) is the No. 1 seed in the West Region and the No.

3 overall seed in the tournament. The Wildcats take on No. 16 seed Long Island (24-10) on March 20 (12:25 p.

m CT). As far as area Nashville teams, Brunette likes Vanderbilt to perform well. "I had fun watching Vanderbilt, so I have them moving up the bracket pretty far," he said.
