Predators' Gustav Nyquist: Makes late impact
Gustav Nyquist scored a goal, added an assist, went plus-2 and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche.Nyquist's pair of points came on empty-netters -- he set up Filip Forsberg's freebie before scoring one of his own 33 seconds later. This was Nyquist's second multi-point effort of the campaign. After a slow start, the winger has four goals and three assists over his last seven outings to get his offense on track. That's all of his points through 11 appearances, and he's added 13 shots on net, eight blocked shots, six hits and a plus-1 rating while playing in the top six and on the second power-play unit.

Predators' Gustav Nyquist: Five points in five games
Gustav Nyquist scored a goal Monday in a 3-2 OT loss to Tampa Bay.Nyquist has three goals and two assists in his last five games after starting the season pointless in four games. The now 35-year-old caught lightning in a bottle last season with a career 75-point season, including 52 assists. It's almost impossible for him to replicate that effort, both because of age and the decreased opportunity that comes with a deeper forward corps in Nashville, but Nyquist will provide you with fantasy depth and maybe his fifth 50-point season.

After opening the year with no points over four games, Nyquist has two goals and two assists over his last three contests. The top-line winger has added 10 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating through seven appearances.

Predators' Gustav Nyquist: First goal of season Tuesday
Gustav 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.

Predators' Gustav Nyquist: Finds first assist
Gustav 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 Nashville 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.
