  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Keeps rolling Saturday

    Saros stopped 23 of 24 shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kraken.

He's allowed two or fewer goals in each of his last nine wins. For the season, the 28-year-old is up to 29-21-4 with a 2.80 GAA and a .908 save percentage through a league-high 54 starts. The Predators return home for their next game Tuesday versus the Sharks.

    Saros stopped 29 shots in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Wild.

The 28-year-old netminder hasn't taken a regulation loss since Feb, 15, going 7-0-2 over his last nine starts with a 1.99 GAA and .932 save percentage.

  • Predators' Juuse Saros: Win streak ends

    Saros allowed four goals on 30 shots in Tuesday's overtime loss to the Canadiens.

Prior to this game, Nashville was on an eight-game winning streak which included Saros' own winning streak of six games.

The 28-year-old is up to 23-21-2 with a 2.95 GAA and a .904 save percentage through 46 outings this season.
