Predators' Juuse Saros: Falls to Blues
Saros gave up three goals on 21 shots in a 3-2 defeat to St. Louis on Thursday.
Saros has been struggling for consistency of late, going 2-3-0 despite a decent 2.42 GAA in his last five outings. With the loss, the Predators were officially eliminated from playoff contention. FOr his part, the 29-year-old netminder will miss the 30-win threshold for the first time since 2020-21, though he should still be capable of getting to 20 victories considering he is just two shy.

The Blues are red hot, posting a 13-2-1 record over their past 16 games.

Saros turned aside 34 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Hurricanes.
Taylor Hall spoiled his shutout bid with a power-play tally in the second period, but otherwise Saros was sharp as he recorded his 18th win of the season and the 200th of his career. The 29-year-old netminder is having a strong finish to the season, going 5-2-0 over his last seven starts with a 2.44 GAA and .900 save percentage.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Shuts door after slow start in win
Saros made 24 saves in a 5-2 win over Toronto on Saturday.
Saros' first period was a touch rough as the Leafs went up 2-0 by the 13:05 mark, and it looked like they might control the match, but the Predators roared back in the second and third with five unanswered goals. Saros has struggled this season with a 17-27-6 record, 2.92 GAA and .897 save percentage. Still, he has four wins in his last six outings and could be heating up during the fantasy playoffs.

Predators' Juuse Saros: In goal against Toronto
Saros will start at home versus the Maple Leafs on Saturday.
Saros and Justus Annunen have alternated starts over the last five games, and that trend will likely continue in Sunday's road game versus St. Louis in the second half of Nashville's back-to-back. The 29-year-old Saros has lost his past two outings, allowing six goals on 36 shots. The Maple Leafs have scored 12 goals during the team's three-game winning streak.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Beaten four times Tuesday
Saros stopped 18 of 22 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Blues.
Saros has dropped his last two starts, and just when he was showing signs of being a dependable netminder, he's found himself struggling lately. Saros has given up multiple goals in each of his last six appearances, a span in which he's gone 3-3-0 with a 3.36 GAA and a subpar .862 save percentage.

Predators' Juuse Saros: First off at morning skate
Saros is slated to start against the Blues on Tuesday, per Emma Lingan of The Hockey News.
Saros will make his 50th appearance of the campaign Tuesday -- he's sporting a 16-26-6 record, 2.92 GAA and .897 save percentage. He was on the losing end of a low-scoring affair against the Ducks in his last start, which followed up a three-game winning streak. The Blues have played well lately, going 8-2-1 in their last 11 games.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Slips up in low-scoring loss
Saros stopped 13 of 15 shots in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Ducks.
The Predators nearly doubled up the Ducks' shot total (29-15), but the goal column didn't reflect it. Saros allowed one tally off a turnover to Troy Terry, and a little playmaking magic from Trevor Zegras to Alex Killorn produced the decisive goal. The 29-year-old Saros saw his three-game winning streak snapped despite the light workload Friday. He's at 16-26-6 with a 2.92 GAA and an .897 save percentage over 49 appearances this season. He'll likely get a breather Saturday, as Justus Annunen should start versus the Kings to close out this back-to-back set that wraps up Nashville's road trip through California.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Receiving start Friday
Saros will play in goal for Friday's road game versus the Ducks, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.
Saros has allowed eight goals during his three-game winning streak. The 29-year-old netminder will look to keep things going against a Ducks team that has won just twice in the last six contests, scoring 21 goals in that span.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Steadies after third-period stumble
Saros stopped 25 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.
Saros gave up both goals in a span of 14 seconds in the third period. That tied the game at 2-2, but when Kieffer Bellows restored the lead for Nashville, Saros made it stick to earn his third straight win. He's allowed eight goals on 73 shots in that span, so he still hasn't really been at his best lately. The Finnish netminder improved to 16-25-6 with a 2.94 GAA and an .898 save percentage over 48 starts this season. The Predators have a back-to-back up next with games in Anaheim on Friday and in Los Angeles on Saturday -- look for Saros and Justus Annunen to split those starts.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Tending twine
Saros will protect the road goal versus the Sharks on Tuesday, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.
Saros has allowed 13 goals over his last four games, but he's won three of those outings. He'll be in goal for a favorable matchup Tuesday, though Saros was pulled from his last outing versus the Sharks on Jan. 21 after allowed four goals on eight shots in what ended up being a 7-5 win for the Predators.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Three wins in four outings
Saros stopped 22 of 25 shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Kraken.
He let in an early goal to Adam Larsson, but the Predators had the next four tallies. Saros then gave up a pair of goals in the third period, taking a little of the shine off what was otherwise a good start for the 29-year-old netminder. He's now 15-25-6 with a 2.96 GAA and an .897 save percentage over 47 starts this season. The Predators have another favorable matchup Saturday versus the Blackhawks, followed by next week's three-game trip in California, so Saros could have a chance at returning decent fantasy value in the near term.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Gets starting nod versus Kraken
Saros will be between the pipes for Thursday's home clash with Seattle, Alex Daugherty of The Tennessean reports.
Saros has been wildly inconsistent of late, allowing just one goal in two of his last five outings while also giving up four or more goals twice over that stretch. Overall, it's been a tough season for the 29-year-old netminder, as he has managed just 14 wins in 46 appearances and will miss the 30-win mark for the first time since 2020-21.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Back in win column Tuesday
Saros made 18 saves in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Bruins.
The 29-year-old netminder gave up a goal in each period, but Nashville gave Saros more than enough offensive support to secure the victory. Saros has alternated wins and losses over his last six starts, allowing five goals on 76 shots (.934 save percentage) in the wins and an ugly 16 goals on 90 shots (.822 save percentage) in the losses as he struggles to produce consistent results behind a banged-up Predators blue line that's missing Roman Josi (upper body), Jeremy Lauzon (lower body) and promising rookie Adam Wilsby (upper body).

Predators' Juuse Saros: Starting in Boston
Saros will defend the road blue paint Tuesday versus the Bruins, Predators Radio Host Max Herz reports.
Saros will make his 46th appearance of the campaign Tuesday -- the Finnish netminder owns a 13-25-6 record, .898 save percentage and 2.96 GAA over 45 starts. The Bruins have put up 2.69 goals per game in 2024-25, which ranks 28th in the NHL. Saros holds a 3-4-1 record, 2.27 GAA and .934 save percentage in eight career games against Boston. Saros has made the third-most starts in the league to this point, and considering Nashville will be in contention to receive the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NHL Entry Draft, it's possible that Justus Annunen will receive a larger share of the crease in the last quarter of the season.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Allows six goals in loss
Saros surrendered six goals on 36 shots in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Islanders. The seventh goal was an empty-netter.
Saros has lost seven of his last nine outings, allowing four goals or more on five occasions. His record falls to 13-25-6 this season with a 2.96 GAA and an .899 save percentage through 45 appearances. Saros isn't alone in this regard among members of the Predators, but he has been a big disappointment in fantasy this campaign.

Predators' Juuse Saros: In net Saturday
Saros will guard the road net Saturday against the Islanders, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.
Saros will make his third straight start after stopping 22 shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over Winnipeg. The Islanders sit 27th in the league with 2.69 goals per game this season. Saros has a 13-24-6 record with a .900 save percentage and 2.88 GAA this campaign.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Strong showing in win
Saros stopped 23 of 24 shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Jets.
The Jets weren't at their best in the second half of their back-to-back, and that was largely because Saros was dialed in. The 29-year-old picked up his second win in his last three starts, a span in which he's allowed six goals on 81 shots. Saros has struggled for much of the campaign, to the tune of a 13-24-6 record with a 2.88 GAA and a .900 save percentage over 44 appearances. He's played three tough opponents in a row and looked to be in better form recently. The Predators begin their three-game road trip with a back-to-back, visiting the Islanders on Saturday and the Rangers on Sunday. Look for Saros and Justus Annunen to split those games.

Predators' Juuse Saros: Set to face Winnipeg
Saros is expected to start at home against Winnipeg on Thursday, per Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site.
The Jets are tied for second in goals per game with 3.58 and are on an 11-game winning streak that's brought their record up to 42-14-3, so to suggest this will be a tough assignment for Saros would be underselling it. Saros also hasn't inspired much confidence this season with his 12-24-6 record, 2.93 GAA and .899 save percentage in 43 appearances. He struggled in his past two starts against the Jets, going 0-2-0 while allowing seven goals on 57 shots (.877 save percentage).
