The Nashville Predators have signed goaltender Pekka Rinne to a seven-year, US$49 million contract, and now they are turning their attention to his defence.

The Predators are trying to keep defencemen Ryan Suter and Shea Weber, who along with Rinne would form the core of the team.

"It just turned out that Pekka was the first one we were in position to negotiate with and bring to conclusion," team chairman Tom Ciggaran said Thursday in a conference call.
