Nathan Gerbe retires from professional hockey, joins hockey operations staff in Nashville
After parts of eleven seasons in the National Hockey League and a handful of others in the AHL and Europe, 35-year-old Nathan Gerbe is retiring and joining the Nashville Predators in a hockey operations role.
Gerbe, a native of Oxford (Michigan), was drafted by the Buffalo Sabres in the fifth round in 2005. He went on to play three seasons at Boston College before making his NHL debut with Buffalo during the 2009-10 season.
During his time in the NHL, Gerbe played for the Sabres, Hurricanes and Blue Jackets. In 435-career games, Gerbe put up 151 points (63 goals, 88 assists), 196 penalty minutes and was a minus-29.
In addition to the hiring of Gerbe, the Predators announced that they've added Ronda Engelhardt to their scouting staff. Ronda becomes the first female scout in Predators franchise history. She previously served as the head coach of the Minnesota Whitecaps in the Premier Hockey Federation from 2018 to 2022.
