• Predators' Roman Josi: Two power-play points in win

  14H ago • By RotoWire

  Josi scored a goal on four shots, added an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche. Both of Josi's points came on the power play. He ended a four-game slump when he set up Steven Stamkos on the tying goal in the second period before scoring one of his own in the third. Through 11 contests, Josi has seven points (five on the power play), 49 shots on net, 20 blocked shots, 12 hits and a minus-8 rating. He hasn't been immune from the Predators' overall struggles, but Josi has enough talent to right the ship while adding well-rounded production for fantasy managers.

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Josi logged two assists, five shots on goal, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Bruins. Josi was instrumental in helping the Predators get their first win of the season. He set up a Ryan O'Reilly power-play tally in the first period and also helped out on Gustav Nyquist's third-period insurance marker. Josi has five assists (three on the power play) with 26 shots on net, 13 blocked shots, nine hits and a minus-3 rating through six outings. As the Predators round into form, Josi figures to be one of the most reliable sources in the league for points, blocks and power-play production from the blue line.

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  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.

• Predators' Roman Josi: Helps out on power play

  24D ago • By RotoWire

  Josi registered a power-play assist, four shots on goal and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Stars. Josi had the secondary helper on a Filip Forsberg tally in the second period. Last year, Josi finished above a point-per-game pace for the second time in three years, producing 23 goals, 62 assists and 33 power-play points over 82 regular-season contests. The 34-year-old defenseman played 29:07 in Thursday's season-opening loss, over 10 minutes more than the next closest Nashville blueliner (Brady Skjei, 19:00). Josi figures to see heavy usage in all situations, and outside of hits, he should be a steady fantasy contributor across the board.

• Predators' Roman Josi: Two helpers Wednesday

  10/03/2024 • By RotoWire

  Josi collected two assists in Wednesday's 6-4 preseason win over the Hurricanes. The veteran blueliner helped set up Nashville's first and last goals of the night, feeding Juuso Parssinen in the first period and Jonathan Marchessault in the third. Josi tied his personal best last season with 23 goals and racked up 85 points, the second-highest total of his career, and at 34 years old he doesn't appear to be slowing down. The Predators' offseason acquisitions of Steven Stamkos and Marchessault should also boost the ceiling of the entire offense, including Josi.
