Nyquist (illness) is set to draw back into the Predators' lineup Thursday, according to Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site. Nyquist missed Tuesday's 4-3 loss to Chicago because of the illness. He has six goals and 10 points over 28 outings in 2024-25. Nyquist is projected to play alongside Ryan O'Reilly, who is returning from a lower-body injury, and Colton Sissons.

Nyquist (illness) won't play Tuesday versus the Flames. Nyquist will miss at least one game while under the weather. The 35-year-old's absence will be covered by Juuso Parssinen in Tuesday's contest. Nyquist has just 10 points through 28 contests this season.

Nyquist notched an assist and four shots on goal in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Flyers. Nyquist has been inconsistent in November, going three games between each time he's gotten on the scoresheet. The 35-year-old remains part of the top six, but he has not been able to replicate his steady playmaking from 2023-24. He's at six goals, four assists, 28 shots on net and a minus-11 rating over 23 appearances, and he's yet to record a power-play point in 2024-25.

Nyquist scored an empty-net goal in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Canucks. Nyquist ended the threat of a Vancouver comeback with 21 seconds left in the game. The winger is up to six goals this season, but his last three tallies have been into empty nets. The good news is those goals mean the Predators are finding more wins, but the 35-year-old won't have sustainable offense if he can't get the better of a goalie now and then. Nyquist has nine points, 21 shots on net and a minus-6 rating through 19 appearances.

Nyquist scored an empty-net goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-0 win over Utah. Nyquist snapped a three-game slump with his empty-netter. The 35-year-old has lost his place on the top line, swapping spots with Steven Stamkos earlier in the week, though the results continue to be mixed at best for the Predators. Nyquist is up to five goals, three assists, 17 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 15 appearances. Considering he's more of a playmaker, Nyquist's production is likely to be dependent on the efficiency of his teammates, though he can still chip in 20 goals on his own.
