The Nashville Predators hockey game on Feb. 19 was designated as “Predators Care for Kids Night,” and 25 percent of single-ticket sales were donated to the Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt.

Vanderbilt provides emergency medical services to Predators games and other events at the Sommet Center.
