  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Nabs helper in loss

    Evangelista logged an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Flames.

    Evangelista has three helpers over seven games since he was last scratched. That's a good sign for the winger's stability in the lineup, though he's not doing enough to draw a lot of fantasy interest. For the season, he's at 11 points, 47 shots on net and a plus-2 rating over 27 appearances in a middle-six role.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Produces assist

    Evangelista logged an assist and three shots on goal in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Lightning.

    Evangelista has been scratched for two of the Predators' last five games, though his path to playing time got easier when the team traded Philip Tomasino to the Penguins. The 22-year-old Evangelista has fallen flat this season with nine points, 41 shots on net and a plus-2 rating over 22 contests. He had 39 points in 80 regular-season outings in 2023-24, and he's shooting just 4.9 percent this year, so there's reason for optimism that he'll turn things around, likely as part of a bigger improvement team-wide for Nashville.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Scores goal in OT loss

    Evangelista scored a goal in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Avalanche.

    Evangelista opened the scoring for the Predators just 1:45 into the game with a wrister that went past Alexandar Georgiev. The 22-year-old winger endured a rough spell in recent weeks but seems to be trending in the right direction of late, notching points in three of his last four games, with one goal and two assists in that span. However, Evangelista has just two goals in 16 games and owns a shooting percentage of just 6.9 percent, so he needs to be more accurate in front of the goal to have any chance of being a reliable fantasy contributor.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Snags assist in loss

    Evangelista registered an assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Capitals.

    Evangelista was originally set to be scratched, but Thomas Novak (upper body) was a late scratch instead. Staying in the lineup allowed Evangelista to snap a five-game point drought when he helped out on a Juuso Parssinen tally in the first period. Through 13 contests, Evangelista has six points, 25 shots on net and a minus-1 rating while averaging 12:32 of ice time. He's still needs to refine his overall game, but he may get a chance to do so in the short term if Novak and Colton Sissons (upper body) are both forced to miss time.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Records power-play helper

    Evangelista logged a power-play assist, two shots on goal and two PIM in Friday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Evangelista has done well in a middle-six role this season, and he now has his first power-play point of the campaign. He's on the second unit with the man advantage. The 22-year-old winger is up to one goal, four assists, 14 shots on net, four PIM and a plus-1 rating over seven contests, including three points over his last two outings.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Scores, assists in win over Boston

    Evangelista recorded an empty-net goal and added an assist in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Bruins.

    Evangelista notched his first goal of the campaign with an empty-netter in the third period when the Bruins were all out on the attack, but before he participated in the build-up that led to Thomas Novak's goal in the second period. This was Evangelista's first multi-point game of the campaign, and the right winger is up to four points through six appearances.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Garners assist

    Evangelista produced an assist in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.

    Evangelista set up Thomas Novak's third-period tally. The 22-year-old Evangelista is on the third line to start 2024-25, and barring injuries, he looks to have little chance of attaining steady top-six minutes. The 22-year-old forward produced 39 points, 172 shots on net and 10 power-play points over 80 regular-season games in his first full campaign in 2023-24. He's too skilled to be a traditional third-liner, but with ice time hard to find, there may not be much growth in his offense this season.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Plucks two apples on power play

    Evangelista recorded a pair of power-play assists in Friday's 5-1 win over the Blackhawks.

    Evangelista was instrumental in helping Filip Forsberg to his 10th NHL hat trick. The 22-year-old Evangelista has thrived offensively as a top-six winger with No. 1 power-play responsibilities, racking up 16 goals and 21 assists -- including 10 points on the power play -- through 78 contests.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Pockets helper in win

    Evangelista notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Blues.

    This was Evangelista's second helper over the last seven games. The winger hasn't made much of an impact from the third line lately. He's at 34 points (seven on the power play), 145 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 74 appearances on the year. Evangelista's power-play role gives him some fantasy upside, but he's yet to turn that into positive results on a consistent basis.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Scores GWG in Columbus

    Evangelista scored the game-winning goal in Saturday's 2-1 victory over the Blue Jackets.

    Evangelista got sprung for a partial breakaway early in the third period and fired a perfect shot off the crossbar to beat Daniil Tarasov and break a 1-1 tie. The 22-year-old winger is up to 30 points (13 goals, 17 assists) over 63 games in his first full NHL season, but rather than hit a wall, Evangelista has picked up the pace of late with four goals and seven points in the last 11 contests.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Supplies assist in loss

    Evangelista logged an assist and one shot on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Canadiens.

    After being a game-time decision due to an illness, Evangelista was in his regular spot on the third line being centered by Thomas Novak. In addition to his assist, Evangelista finished with one shot and a minus-1 rating in 13:51 of ice time. He has 28 points in 68 games played this season. The 22-year old winger is an intriguing young player with flashes of offensive potential. While his immediate fantasy value remains limited due to his third-line role and lack of consistent playing time, he is a player to keep an eye on, especially if he starts to receive more power-play time.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Set to play

    Evangelista (illness) took warmups and is expected to be in the lineup Tuesday versus the Canadiens, Nick Kieser of 102.5 ESPN Nashville reports.

    Evangelista missed practice Monday due to an illness, but it doesn't appear that he'll miss any game action. The 22-year-old will line up in his usual third-line role, while Denis Gurianov remains out of the lineup.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Dealing with illness

    Evangelista was absent from Monday's practice because of an illness, according to Robby Stanley of NHL.com.

    Evangelista still could be available to play Tuesday versus Montreal. The 22-year-old forward has 11 goals and 27 points through 60 games this season. If Evangelista can't suit up against the Canadiens, Denis Gurianov could slot back into the lineup.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Points in three straight contests

    Evangelista registered an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Kings.

    Evangelista has a pair of goals and one assist over his last three contests. The winger set up a Mark Jankowski tally in the second period, which stood as the game-winner. Evangelista is up to 26 points, 101 shots on net and a minus-2 rating through 55 outings. His offense hasn't taken another step up in 2023-24, but he's at least finding some consistency in recent outings.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Lights lamp Tuesday

    Evangelista scored a goal on four shots, added four PIM and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Golden Knights.

    Evangelista opened the scoring at 5:35 of the first period. He's scored in consecutive contests while earning three points over four appearances since the All-Star break. The 21-year-old winger is still stuck in a bottom-six role, and that doesn't bode well for him sustaining his offense. He's up to 11 goals, 25 points, 99 shots on net, 18 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 54 outings.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Pockets helper

    Evangelista notched an assist in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Coyotes.

    Evangelista has two helpers over his last four games. The 21-year-old isn't in a position to succeed currently -- he's been logging fourth-line minutes recently after spending much of the first half of the campaign in a middle-six role. Evangelista is at 23 points, 92 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 51 appearances overall.

  • Predators' Luke Evangelista: Scores Monday

    Evangelista scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

    Evangelista was responsible for Nashville's lone tally in the loss, deflecting an Alexandre Carrier shot past Logan Thompson in the second period, cutting Vegas' lead to 2-1. The 21-year-old Evangelista now has goals in back-to-back games and five in his last eight contests. He's up to nine goals and 21 points through 43 games this season in a middle-six role.
