Top Predators News

  • Predators' Ryan O'Reilly: Supplies pair of assists

    O'Reilly notched two assists (one on the power play), fired two shots on goal and blocked three shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Avalanche.

    O'Reilly saw a five-game point streak snapped in Tuesday's win over the Hurricanes. He bounced back with his third multi-point effort of the season to help the Predators notch a third straight win. The veteran center is up to seven goals, 10 assists, 29 shots on net, 20 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a minus-7 rating through 16 appearances in a top-line role.

  • Predators' Vitali Pinchuk: First goal a beauty in overtime win

    Pinchuk scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Avalanche.

    Pinchuk's first NHL was a beauty, a spinning backhand that got over Mackenzie Blackwood in the first period. The 24-year-old Pinchuk has played the last two games due to the absence of Jonathan Marchessault (lower body). Pinchuk has two points, seven shots and a minus-1 rating over seven appearances to begin his NHL career. If he can build some confidence and momentum, he'll be able to stick around on Nashville's third line.

  • Predators' Ross Colton: Scores in return to Denver

    Colton scored a goal on two shots and blocked four shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Avalanche.

    Colton's recent run of offense was sparked with a helper against his former team in a 6-2 win Oct. 25. He's earned three goals and two assists over his last six games, and that includes his opening tally in his return to Denver on Thursday. The 30-year-old is up to seven points, 23 shots on net, 38 hits, 14 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 16 outings while primarily filling a bottom-six role.

  • Predators' Steven Stamkos: Scores winner in overtime

    Stamkos scored a power-play goal on three shots, added two PIM and logged two hits in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Avalanche.

    Stamkos' tally came in overtime to give the Predators a third straight win, all against fairly tough opponents. The 36-year-old has scored twice over those games. He's up to nine goals, 17 points, 39 shots on net, 10 hits, six PIM and a minus-5 rating across 16 appearances. Stamkos should remain productive as long as he's in a top-six role, which is unlikely to change any time soon.

  • Predators' Justus Annunen: Takes down Avalanche again

    Annunen stopped 30 of 32 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Avalanche.

    This was a third straight win for Annunen, and his second in that span over his former team. The 26-year-old has allowed 14 goals on 110 shots over his four outings this season, but he's played well enough from a results standpoint to afford the Predators a chance to give Juuse Saros some extra rest. Annunen's next start is likely to come on the road, either Tuesday versus the Kings or Wednesday against the Ducks.

  • Predators' Jonathan Marchessault: Absent again Thursday

    Marchessault (lower body) won't play versus the Avalanche on Thursday, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Marchessault is set to miss a second straight game. He remains day-to-day due to the injury. Vitali Pinchuk is staying in the lineup on the third line to cover Marchessault's absence. It's unclear if Marchessault will be able to play Saturday versus the Blues.

  • Predators' Justus Annunen: Set to face Colorado

    Annunen is expected to start on the road against Colorado on Thursday.

    Annunen has a 2-1-0 record, 3.89 GAA and .846 save percentage in three outings this season. He stopped 22 of 26 shots en route to a 5-4 shootout win against Tampa Bay in his last start Saturday. The Avalanche are tied for first in goals per game with 4.13 this season.

  • Predators' Filip Forsberg: Keeps rolling with two helpers

    Forsberg notched two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.

    This was Forsberg's fifth straight multi-point game. He has four goals and seven assists in that span, though this was his first effort during the streak that didn't include a power-play contribution. The 32-year-old winger is up to a total of 19 points (seven on the power play), 37 shots on net, 17 hits, eight blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 15 appearances.

  • Predators' Nick Perbix: Puts away first goal

    Perbix scored a goal and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.

    Perbix has three points over his last two games. That's all of his offense this season, but he's done enough overall to stick around in the NHL after initially clearing waivers to begin the campaign. He's since exhausted the 10 appearances that comes with clearing waivers, so he would have to go through the process again if the Predators want to send him to AHL Milwaukee. With his play trending up, that seems unlikely for now. Perbix has added nine shots on net, 24 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 14 appearances.

  • Predators' Adam Edstrom: Nets goal in win

    Edstrom scored a goal on two shots, added eight hits and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.

    Edstrom is on a three-game point streak (two goals, one assist). The 26-year-old forward also continues to bring the boom with 15 hits in that span. He's a fourth-liner through and through, but he's been able to find the net pretty well with a career-high six goals over 15 games. He's added one assist, 25 shots on net, 71 hits and a plus-1 rating on the year. Edstrom has some appeal in banger leagues due to the high hit totals -- he's already surpassed his total from last year (65), which he accumulated over 35 contests.

  • Predators' Ross Colton: Produces pair of points

    Colton scored an empty-net goal, dished an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.

    Colton has picked up four points over his last five games after his first multi-point effort of the campaign. The 30-year-old forward is up to three goals, three assists, 21 shots on net, 38 hits and a minus-1 rating across 15 appearances. Colton is a fixture in the Predators' bottom six and should be able to continue providing some secondary scoring throughout the season.

  • Predators' Roman Josi: Goal, assist in win

    Josi scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.

    The goal was Josi's first since Opening Night versus the Wild. The 36-year-old defenseman has remained productive as a facilitator -- he has earned seven helpers over his last five outings. Overall, he has two goals, 15 assists, 43 shots on net, 25 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-4 rating across 15 appearances this season.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Pulls off upset win

    Saros stopped 29 of 30 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.

    Saros had allowed 10 goals on 93 shots over his last three games, going 0-1-2 in that span. He responded with his most impressive win of the campaign, taking down the defending champions with a strong outing. Saros is now 4-3-4 with a 2.77 GAA and a .908 save percentage over 11 starts. Results will likely remain consistently modest in Nashville, but Saros' heavy workload makes him a decent fantasy goalie. He may still be someone to avoid when the Predators visit the Avalanche on Thursday.

  • Predators' Jonathan Marchessault: Not playing Tuesday

    Marchessault (lower body) won't play against Carolina on Tuesday.

    Marchessault is day-to-day and will miss at least one game. He has chipped in two goals, five points, 31 shots on net and 15 hits in 14 appearances this season. Vitali Pinchuk will replace Marchessault in Tuesday's lineup against the Hurricanes.

  • Predators' Jonathan Marchessault: Game-time decision

    Marchessault (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision against Carolina on Tuesday, according to Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site.

    Marchessault skipped Monday's practice for maintenance, and whatever he is dealing with could cost him at least one game. He has contributed two goals, five points, 31 shots on net and 15 hits in 14 appearances this season.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Facing reigning champs

    Saros will defend the home net in Tuesday's clash against the Hurricanes, per Alex Daugherty of The Tennessean.

    Saros will look to snap his three-game losing streak Tuesday after being handed his first regulation loss since Oct. 13 in Thursday's loss to the Capitals. Overall, the 31-year-old netminder has a 3-3-4 record, a 2.94 GAA and a .902 save percentage across 10 appearances this season. Despite not being able to find the win column since Oct. 17, Saros remains a fringe No. 2 goalie option in fantasy given his decent stat splits and command over the opportunities in net for Nashville. He'll face a tough test Tuesday, however, against the Hurricanes, making him a risky fantasy option.
