Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Not expected back soon
Rotowire
Parssinen (upper body) hasn't resumed skating according to GM David Poile, Robby Stanley of 102.5 The Game reports Tuesday.
Parssinen has been out of action since late February and seems no closer to getting back onto the ice. Unfortunately, the club never offered a more clear recovery timeline, so for now fantasy players will probably have to just consider him out indefinitely. Even once given the all-clear, the youngster is far from a lock for the lineup and may have to spend time as a healthy scratch periodically.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Atones for penalty
Rotowire
Parssinen scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Monday's 2-1 win over the Flames.
Parssinen took a hooking penalty in the first period, but he quickly made up for it by scoring 10 seconds after he exited the sin bin. That goal held up as the game-winner, and it stretched his point streak to seven contests (two goals, seven assists). The rookie forward has impressive so far with five tallies, 18 points, 38 shots on net, 56 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 29 contests. His penalty Monday was just his second of the season -- Parssinen's discipline won't help in most fantasy formats, but it will keep the 21-year-old in the good graces of head coach John Hynes.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Point streak at six games
Rotowire
Parssinen produced a power-play assist, two shots on goal, two hits and a minus-3 rating in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Sabres.
Parssinen has an active six-game point streak, logging a goal and seven helpers in that span. This was his second power-play assist during the streak. The 21-year-old forward has bounced around the lineup at times, but he's seeing the bulk of his even-strength time on the top line while also playing on the top power-play unit, so there's fantasy upside to be had. The seventh-round pick from 2019 has 17 points (six on the power play), 35 shots on net, 56 hits and a minus-1 rating through 28 appearances.

Predators' Juuso Parssinen: Nabs helper in loss
Rotowire
Parssinen supplied a primary assist in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to the Maple Leafs.
The Predators have instilled a lot of faith in Parssinen, as the rookie is operating on the top line and No. 1 power-play unit. However, the bad news is that Nashville has struggled offensively -- it ranks 27th in goals per game (2.75) -- and more growing pains should be expected from Parssinen as the Finn adjusts to hockey's highest level of competition.
