Top Predators News

  • Predators' Roman Josi: Moves to IR

    Josi (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Sunday.

    Josi remains week-to-week and has already missed the last five games. It's still unclear when he will be available to return to the lineup. He has accounted for one goal, four assists, 19 shots on net, 15 blocked shots and four hits across eight appearances this season. Josi's move to the IR list opens a roster spot for the Predators to potentially recall a forward from AHL Milwaukee to replace Cole Smith (upper body).

  • Predators' Cole Smith: Will be out for a while

    Smith (upper body) will be out for 3-6 weeks, the team announced Sunday.

    Smith left Saturday's game against the Flames early and didn't return with an injury that will keep him out for 3-6 weeks. The 30-year-old has three goals and a minus-2 rating through 13 games this season. Tyson Jost is likely to slot into the lineup in his place in the short term, but the Predators will likely need to make another roster move to fill his spot as well.

  • Predators' Filip Forsberg: Fills empty cage

    Forsberg scored an empty-net goal on two shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Flames.

    Forsberg has three goals and two assists over his last five games. His empty-netter put a bow on the Predators' first win in four contests. The 31-year-old winger is up to five goals, nine points, 37 shots on net, 31 hits and a minus-1 rating through 13 appearances this season. He's playing on the top line and first power-play unit, and it's safe to say Nashville's scoring struggles as a team won't have anything to do with Forsberg's individual performance.

  • Predators' Jonathan Marchessault: Nets winner over Calgary

    Marchessault scored a goal in Saturday's 4-2 win over Calgary.

    His power-play goal stood as the winner. Marchessault took a pass from Michael Bunting on a 3-on-2 rush and beat Dustin Wolf on the forehand from in front of the net. After putting up four points in his first four games, Marchessault has just two goals on 15 shots in his last six outings. He recorded 21 goals, 35 assists and 206 shots on net in 78 games during the 2024-25 regular season, but his minus-29 rating hung like an anchor for some managers. This season, Marchessault is already minus-8 in 10 games.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Carrying heavy workload so far

    Saros made 33 saves in a 4-2 win over the Flames on Saturday.

    Saros has started 11 of Nashville's first 13 games, and he's 5-4-2 with a 2.79 GAA and a .905 save percentage in that span. This heavy workload may catch up to Saros at some point, but the team's confidence in Justus Annunen could increase before that happens.

  • Predators' Matthew Wood: Record-setting night

    Wood had a goal and an assist in a 4-2 win over Calgary on Saturday.

    Both points came in the first period. It was Wood's first multi-point game in the NHL in his 12th game. The 20-year-old forward, who scored in his second straight game, was selected in the first round of the 2023 NHL Entry Draft. Wood is the first Nashville player since Philip Tomasino (two points in the second period on March 13, 2022) to record a multi-point period at age 20 or younger.

  • Predators' Nick Blankenburg: First point of season

    Blankenburg picked up an assist in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Flames.

    It was his first point of the season in his third appearance. After being a healthy scratch in 10 of the first 11 games, Blankenburg has played in two straight outings because of injuries to Roman Josi (upper body) and Adam Wilsby (lower body).

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Predators' Michael Bunting: Three points in first period

    Bunting had a goal and two assists in a 4-2 win over Calgary on Saturday.

    All three points came in the first period, including one assist on the power play. Bunting has four points (one goal, three assists) and four shots in his last two games. Don't get too excited -- the winger had a great game, but he had just three points in 11 games before this two-game run. He needs to show more consistency before being trusted in more than spot starts.

  • Predators' Cole Smith: Exits Saturday's game

    Smith sustained an upper-body injury and won't return to Saturday's clash against Calgary as a result.

    Smith had three goals, 17 shots and 35 hits in 12 appearances going into Saturday's action. If he can't play Monday versus Vancouver, then Tyson Jost will probably draw back into the lineup and take Smith's spot on the fourth line.

  • Predators' Adam Wilsby: Unavailable Saturday

    Wilsby (lower body) won't play against Calgary on Sunday, according to Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site.

    Wilsby remains day-to-day and will miss his second straight outing. He has produced two assists, 11 shots on goal, seven blocked shots, four hits and 10 PIM across 11 appearances this season. Due to Wilsby's absence, Nick Blankenburg will stay in the lineup.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Tending twine Saturday

    Saros will be between the pipes for Saturday's home matchup against Calgary, per Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site.

    Saros has lost his last two outings, giving up seven goals on 48 shots. He has a 4-4-2 record this season with a 2.86 GAA and a .900 save percentage through 10 appearances. Calgary ranks 32nd in the league with only 2.17 goals per game this campaign.

  • Predators' Matthew Wood: Tallies first NHL goal

    Wood scored a goal on four shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Flyers.

    Wood has collected two points over five appearances since his Oct. 23 recall from AHL Milwaukee. His goal Thursday was the first of his NHL career. The 20-year-old winger was limited by a lower-body injury late in training camp, but he's looking like he belongs in the NHL now, at least as a bottom-six forward. He may not generate a ton of offense, as the Predators have had trouble scoring. In addition to his two points, Wood has 11 shots on net, five hits and a plus-1 rating so far.

  • Predators' Brady Martin: Stands out in Greyhounds' win

    Martin scored a goal on five shots and added three assists in OHL Sault Ste. Marie's 4-1 win over North Bay on Thursday.

    It hasn't taken Martin long to readjust to the junior ranks after he was demoted from the Predators' NHL roster. In his first three games back with the Greyhounds, he's racked up a goal and six assists. The hard-working center had one helper in three games while in Nashville, and it's possible the 18-year-old rejoins the big club if the Greyhounds' campaign ends early enough.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Minimal support yet again

    Saros made 14 saves in a 4-1 win over the Flyers on Thursday.

    Saros has been strong for a struggling team. He put up back-to-back wins prior to Thursday's loss, and he is 4-3-2 in nine starts with a 2.84 GAA and a .905 save percentage. Saros is doing everything in his power to give his team a chance. However, the Preds have struggled to score -- they have scored more than two goals in a game just once in their last eight contests. At some point, this situation will change. Until then, Saros is a tough option in leagues that prioritize wins, but his solid counting stats may offset that, depending on the format.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Starting in Philadelphia

    Saros will guard the road goal versus the Flyers on Thursday, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Saros has allowed at least four goals in four of his last five appearances, going 2-3-0 in that span. The Flyers have won four of their last five games, but three of those victories have come past regulation time, so expect this one to be a close contest.

  • Predators' Adam Wilsby: Ruled out for Thursday's game

    Wilsby (lower body) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Flyers, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Wilsby exited Tuesday's matchup against the Lightning due to his lower-body injury, and he'll be unavailable for at least one additional game. Nick Blankenburg will enter the Predators' lineup against Philadelphia, while Wilsby is considered day-to-day for now.
