  • Predators' Thomas Novak: Finds back of net Tuesday

    Novak scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Bruins.

    Novak recorded his third goal of the season Tuesday, but unlike in the previous two games in which he scored, this one contributed to Nashville's victory. The Predators have endured a tough start to the season, but Novak has found a way to stay productive in front of goal, tallying three goals across six appearances while averaging 2.3 shots per contest.

  • Predators' Gustav Nyquist: First goal of season Tuesday

    Nyquist scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Bruins.

    It took Nyquist six games to find the back of the net, but he finally ended his drought with a third-period goal as Nashville snapped its losing skid and clinched its first win of the season. Nyquist has points in each of his last two outings and should continue to have opportunities to produce as long as he continues to skate alongside Ryan O'Reilly and Filip Forsberg in the first line.

  • Predators' Ryan O'Reilly: Two points in Tuesday's win

    O'Reilly scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Bruins.

    O'Reilly broke the deadlock for the Predators in the final minutes of the first period with his first power-play goal of the campaign, which also extended his goal streak to four contests. The veteran center later helped seal the win with an assist in Gustav Nyquist's third-period goal. O'Reilly has been one of Nashville's best players amid the team's woeful start to the season and has cracked the scoresheet in all but one of his six appearances.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Scores, assists in win ver Boston

    Evangelista recorded an empty-net goal and added an assist in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Bruins.

    Evangelista notched his first goal of the campaign with an empty-netter in the third period when the Bruins were all out on the attack, but before he participated in the build-up that led to Tommy Novak's goal in the second period. This was Evangelista's first multi-point game of the campaign, and the right winger is up to four points through six appearances.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Posts 33-save shutout

    Saros stopped 33 shots in a 4-0 shutout win over the Bruins on Tuesday.

    Saros delivered his best outing of the season Tuesday and lifted the Predators to their first win of the campaign. Despite starting the new season with four straight defeats, fantasy owners who drafted Saros shouldn't be concerned by his 1-4-0 record, as the skid was more a result of the Predators' poor overall play rather than Saros struggling between the pipes. Through five outings in 2024-25, Saros owns a 2.89 GAA and a .903 save percentage.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Tending twine Tuesday

    Saros will protect the home goal Tuesday versus the Bruins, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Saros has lost all four of his starts this season, allowing 14 goals in that span. The 29-year-old's tough start is more a product of poor play from his teammates than it is anything to be concerned about in the long run. The Bruins have scored 21 goals over six games so far.

  • Predators' Zachary L'Heureux: Called up Monday

    L'Heureux was recalled by the Predators on Monday, Robby Stanley of NHL.com reports.

    L'Heureux hasn't yet made his NHL debut but was present at the Predators' practice session Monday. Although he's with the NHL club for now, it seems unlikely that he'll see a significant role for Nashville as long as the team stays healthy.

  • Predators' Gustav Nyquist: Finds first assist

    Nyquist logged an assist in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.

    Linemates Ryan O'Reilly and Filip Forsberg have been good despite the Predators' rough start, but Nyquist hadn't gotten on the scoresheet in the first four games. The veteran winger has posted seven shots on net, three hits and a minus-4 rating over five appearances this season. Nyquist's 75-point effort in 81 regular-season games in 2023-24 was likely unsustainable, but fantasy managers expect more from forwards getting first-line minutes and power-play time on the second unit. He doesn't play much of a physical game, so he has to maintain production offensively to be an option in most fantasy formats.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Surrenders three goals in defeat

    Saros stopped 19 of 22 shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Detroit. The final two goals were empty-netters.

    Saros has lost four straight starts to begin the 2024-25 campaign, permitting 14 goals on 112 shots. He has allowed at least three goals in three consecutive outings. The Predators will host Boston on Tuesday.

  • Predators' Luke Schenn: Scores in Saturday's loss

    Schenn scored a goal in a 5-2 loss to Detroit on Saturday.

    Schenn opened the scoring at the 8:48 mark of the first period. He added two shots on net, two blocked shots and two hits in 15:17 of ice time. Schenn has one point through five appearances this season.

  • Predators' Steven Stamkos: Finally finds twine

    Stamkos potted a power-play goal in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Detroit.

    Stamkos' first point as a member of the Predators tied the game at 2-2 in the opening minute of the third period. However, the Red Wings scored three unanswered markers, including two empty-netters, to claim the victory. Stamkos also had six shots in Saturday's appearance, giving him 20 on the year.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Starting Saturday

    Saros will guard the home net Saturday against the Red Wings.

    Saros is still looking to grab his first win of the 2024-25 season after allowing 11 goals on 90 shots en route to a mark of 0-3-0. The 29-year-old goaltender will face a Detroit team that's scored just three times in its last two contests.

  • Predators' Marc Del Gaizo: Called up to Preds

    Del Gaizo was recalled by Nashville on Saturday.

    Del Gaizo played nine games with the Predators last season, logging three assists. It's unclear whether the 25-year-old blueliner will get into the lineup Saturday against Detroit.

  • Predators' Steven Stamkos: Cold start to season

    Stamkos has failed to record a point through the first four games of the season.

    The Predators' biggest signing in free agency is still looking for chemistry with his new teammates. There's reason to think Stamkos has just been unlucky -- he has 14 shots on net so far. At last year's 15.3 shooting percentage, he would have netted two goals with his average luck. Fantasy managers may want to buy low on Stamkos, as there probably won't be any looking back once his offense comes to life.

  • Predators' Ryan O'Reilly: Deals assist Thursday

    O'Reilly recorded an assist in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Oilers.

    O'Reilly has had some quiet individual success so far, earning a goal, two assists, eight shots on net and five blocked shots over four games. He's also taken a minus-4 rating, as the Predators' defensive struggles have found him as well. The 33-year-old remains in a top-line role and on the first power-play unit, where he should be a consistent playmaker to complement Filip Forsberg's finishing skill.

  • Predators' Roman Josi: Two assists in Thursday's loss

    Josi produced two assists, two shots on goal, three hits and three blocked shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Oilers.

    Josi had been held off the scoresheet in the previous two games. The 34-year-old defenseman is up to three helpers this season, two of which have come on the power play. He's added 17 shots on net, nine blocked shots, six hits and a minus-4 rating. Josi is among the top blueliners in the NHL, but he hasn't been immune from the Predators' team-wide struggles to begin the year.
