Juuso Parssinen - NHL News & Rumors

Losing playing time Parssinen was scratched for the eighth time in 11 games when he sat out Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Injuries opened the door for Parssinen to play in November, but he didn't do enough to stay in the lineup when he had the chance. He's at five points, 11 shots on net, 28 hits and a minus-8 rating through 15 appearances this season. For now, the Predators appear content with letting Zachary L'Heureux get a longer look in a middle-six role, so there's no telling when Parssinen might get another chance.

On four-game point streak Parssinen notched an assist and four hits in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Parssinen has two goals and two assists during his active four-game point streak. He set up a Luke Evangelista tally in the first period of Monday's game. Parssinen has five points, six shots on net, 19 hits and a minus-2 rating through eight appearances. While it took him a while to gain a steady spot in the lineup, he appears to have it now as the third-line center.

Registers power-play assist Parssinen picked up a power-play assist and added six hits in Saturday's 4-0 win over Utah.

Impact Parssinen is starting to find a groove, getting on the scoresheet in three straight games (two goals, one assist). His helper Saturday was his first power-play point of the year. Considering the Predators have struggled to get offense out of their bottom six, Parssinen is helping his case to stay in the lineup after being a frequent scratch in October. He has four points, five shots on net, 15 hits and a minus-3 rating through seven appearances.

Lights lamp Thursday Parssinen scored a goal in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Parssinen has found the back of the net in back-to-back games, and he's recorded points in three of his six appearances this season. The 23-year-old has shown some interesting things, and if he's able to remain in the power-play unit and as a middle-six forward, he could continue finding ways to produce.

NOVEMBER 8 • ROTOWIRE

Pots first goal Parssinen scored his first goal of the season in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Capitals.

Impact The 23-year-old opened the scoring early in the first period by tipping home a Luke Evangelista point shot, but it was the only lead the Predators would hold on the night. Parssinen has only been in the lineup for five of the team's first 13 games, but he's taken a shift in four straight and actually led all Nashville forwards Wednesday in even-strength ice time. With the team looking for answers on offense, Parssinen could get a longer look in a top-six role.

NOVEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Gets second-line look Parssinen had two shots on goal, three hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche.

Impact Parssinen saw second-line minutes at even strength, though he remains out of the power-play rotation. The 23-year-old has one assist, two shots, four hits, three blocks and a minus-4 rating over three appearances this season, but he's been in the lineup for two straight games. The Predators are still looking for an answer to their second-line center problem, and if Parssinen can get his offense going, he may earn that spot over Colton Sissons and Thomas Novak.

NOVEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Not reassigned to AHL Contrary to a previous report, Parssinen was not reassigned to AHL Milwaukee on Monday.

Impact Parssinen is in the running for a role in the bottom six after signing a one-year deal with Nashville In September. The 23-year-old registered 12 points and a minus-6 rating in 44 regular-season games in 2023-24.

OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to minors Parssinen was assigned to AHL Milwaukee on Monday.

Impact Parssinen accounted for eight goals, 12 points, 54 shots on net and 62 hits over 44 regular-season outings with Nashville in 2023-24. If he starts the 2024-25 campaign in the minors, he could return to the NHL level at some point.

SEPTEMBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Inks one-year deal Parssinen agreed to terms on a one-year $775,000 contract with Nashville on Monday.

Impact Parssinen's deal is a one-way contract, which doesn't guarantee he'll start the season in the NHL but certainly makes it harder to ship him down to the minors. After suiting up in 45 regular-season contests with the Preds last year, in which he generated eight goals and four assists, the 23-year-old winger looks poised to be a full-time contributor with Nashville. While Parssinen will likely slot into a bottom-six role at the onset, an injury or two could open the door for more minutes and an increased role last in the campaign.

SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Returned to AHL affiliate Parssinen was reassigned to AHL Milwaukee on Saturday.

Impact Parssinen was in the lineup Friday as the Predators were eliminated from the Stanley Cup playoffs in a 1-0 loss to Vancouver. The 23-year-old played 44 regular-season games for Nashville, scoring eight times and adding four assists. Look for Parssinen to play as a middle-six forward next season for the Predators.

Impact This was Parssinen's second straight game with an empty-netter and his third straight game with a point. While he's burying freebies, it could be enough to spark the 22-year-old in the second half of the campaign. For the season, he has eight goals, 12 points, 52 shots on net, 44 hits and a minus-5 rating through 41 appearances.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Parssinen then helped set up Jeremy Lauzon to the tally that forced OT midway through the third.

Nets power-play goal in win Parssinen scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Lightning.

Impact Parssinen got Nashville on the board late in the first period, burying a loose puck on the power play to tie the game 1-1. The 22-year-old Parssinen has shown signs of life offensively of late, posting two goals and three points in his last five games. He now has five goals (two on the man advantage) and seven points through 25 games after posting 25 points (six goals, 19 assists) as a rookie last season.

DECEMBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores goal in loss to Wild Parssinen netted a goal in a 6-1 win against Minnesota on Thursday.

Impact Parssinen's tally came early in the third period and merely narrowed Minnesota's lead to 5-1. He has four goals and five points in 21 contests this season. While that's not much offensive production, he is averaging 15:00 of ice time, including 1:52 with the man advantage, so the 22-year-old is in a position to improve. We saw evidence Parssinen could do better in 2022-23 when he recorded 25 points (six goals) in 45 contests with Nashville as a rookie.

The 22-year-old impressed as a rookie last year with 25 points (six goals, 19 assists) in 45 contests, and he's off to a strong start in 2023-24. The Finn should continue to be a strong contributor on offense if he stays on a line with Ryan O'Reilly and Filip Forsberg.

OCTOBER 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in opener Parssinen scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to Tampa Bay.

Impact Parssinen put the Predators ahead 2-1 in the opening seconds of the third quarter, beating Jonas Johansson through the five-hole after a Lightning turnover.
