Temporary shops have popped up across Davidson County ahead of game one in the Stanley Cup Final to sell predators gear to fans anxious to get their hands on all things blue and gold.

"I flew in Wednesday and we opened up Thursday morning,"said Kari DeLillo, who works for a Connecticut company called N&D Sports. "I started with three shirts and sold out of most of them right away."

DeLillo has city permits to sell her merchandise at Central Pike and Dodson Chapel Road in Hermitage. She said most of her merchandise is licensed, but some is not.

"A non-licensed shirt will not have the team's name or logo on it, if it did we couldn't sell it," she said.

Licensed shirts will have a holographic sticker to prove its authenticity. All merchandise at the Predators Pro shop is officially licensed gear.

The Pro Shop will be open extended hours this week and will remain open through all games.
