59 Roman Josi D

Josi picked up two assists, one short-handed and one on the power play, in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

The blueliner has struggled along with the rest of the Predators to begin the season, but Josi may be waking up with five points (all helpers) over the last four games. Even with that surge, however, the 30-year-old still has just two goals and 13 points through 21 contests, a far cry from last season's near point-a-game pace.

Josi notched a power-play assist, six shots on goal and four blocked shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.

Josi set up Mikael Granlund for the Predators' first tally of the game. After a rough six-game stretch in which Josi had just two assists, he's picked up three helpers in the last two contests. Fantasy managers will hope that's a sign the Swiss blueliner is rounding back into form. Overall, Josi has 11 points (five on the power play), 66 shots, 34 blocks and a minus-6 rating in 19 outings.

Josi posted two power-play assists, five shots on goal and two PIM in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Red Wings.

Josi has two goals, 10 points, 30 blocked shots, 60 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 18 contests this year. The Predators' offense has dropped from 3.07 goals per game in 2019-20 to just 2.28 in 2020-21, and Josi's point output has taken a corresponding hit. He'll still see plenty of ice time, so there's reason to believe the Swiss blueliner can still put up decent numbers by the end of the season.

Josi will have to wait for Thursday's clash with Columbus for his next opportunity to add to the two goals and eight points he's amassed through 15 games this campaign.

Josi and the Predators will not play Carolina on Tuesday after the game was postponed. Per the NHL's statement, "The decision was made out of an abundance of caution to ensure the health and safety of players, coaches and game day personnel and in consultation with medical experts.
