Predators' Colton Sissons: Ends mini-drought with helper

The 25-year-old winger has been a streaky commodity this year, running more cold than hot most of the time. He had a nice run in the first half of January, with six points in six games, but he's been very quiet since then. Considering he's the Preds' third-line center, he continues to see a lot of ice time (17:08 over his last 12 games); however scoring-wise, he just doesn't make the most of his minutes. From a fantasy perspective, he's still too high-risk for us to recommend owning him in most standard formats.

Predators' Colton Sissons: Lights lamp Monday

With three points in his last two games following his return from a lower-body injury, Sissons certainly has a nice little hot streak going. That being said, his stint as the Preds' second-line center will likely come to an end once Kyle Turris (lower body) comes off the IR. Once that happens, Sissons will likely return to his regular third-line role, so be prepared to adjust your fantasy lineups accordingly.

Predators' Colton Sissons: Makes impact in second game back

After being held off the scoresheet Saturday in his return to the ice from a lower-body injury that cost him two weeks of action, Sissons demonstrated that he was back to 100 percent in this one. The 25-year-old has eight goals and 18 points through 37 games, and while he doesn't have a prominent role on the Preds, he is on pace for a career-best season.

Predators' Colton Sissons: Removed from IR

Sissons has seven goals and nine assists through 35 games with his ice time (16:31) seemingly at its pinnacle. He tends to score in bunches, so consider deploying him in DFS tournament settings; the winger will be a particularly sneaky play Saturday considering he missed the previous seven games.

All three skaters remain on injured reserve as well, so it's safe to assume that Sissons and Co. will be out at least until the team embarks on a five-game road trip beginning with Friday's visit to Detroit.
