Lends helper Saturday Stastney notched an assist and two blocked shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Stastney has three helpers over his last seven contests while seeing fairly steady usage on the third pairing. He'll have to fend off Jordan Oesterle for playing time, but Andreas Englund is likely in more danger of stepping out of the lineup than Stastney. For the season, the 25-year-old Stastney is up to three helpers, 12 shots on net, 17 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating across 16 NHL appearances.

Assists in consecutive contests Stastney notched an assist in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Stastney had the secondary helper on Steven Stamkos' goal in overtime. The 25-year-old Stastney has earned an assist in consecutive games while stepping into a top-four role and a power-play spot in recent contests. He's a lock to be in the lineup as long as Roman Josi (upper body) is out, though the Predators were forced into dressing seven defensemen with no spare healthy forwards on the roster. Fantasy managers in deep formats may get some value out of Stastney, who has two assists, 10 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 11 appearances. Brady Skjei remains the safest healthy blueliner to roster from Nashville.

Over the previous two campaigns, Stastney had six points in 28 appearances, so his offensive upside is limited. He's added nine shots on net, 10 blocked shots, two hits and a minus-4 rating in 2024-25 while seeing bottom-four minutes.
