Ryker Lee - Nets two goals Friday Lee scored two goals in Michigan State University's 8-2 win over the University of Notre Dame on Friday.

Impact Lee has compiled 11 goals and 24 points over 28 appearances for the Spartans this season. It's a decent performance on the whole, though he's had some quiet stretches and hasn't had the room to dominate on a highly talented team. Lee will likely require multiple years of development in the NCAA and/or AHL before he'll be an option for the Predators.

Juuse Saros - Lead slips away in semis Saros made 36 saves in Finland's 3-2 loss to Canada in the Olympic men's hockey semifinals Friday.

Impact Finland took a 2-0 lead early in the second period, but Canada kept the pressure up and eventually got three pucks past Saros, two of them on power plays. The Predators netminder has been a big part of his team's push for a medal, and he'll likely be between the pipes again Saturday as Finland faces Slovakia for the bronze.

Juuse Saros - Facing Canada Saros will patrol the Finnish crease versus Canada in semifinals action Friday at the 2026 Winter Olympics, according to Ethan Sears of the New York Post.

Impact Saros gave up three goals on 24 shots in an opening round loss to Slovakia, but the 30-year-old has been outstanding since then while turning aside 70 of 73 shots to enable Finland to make it to the semifinals. Canada enters the game as the favorite, but will be without the services of Sidney Crosby (lower body).

Matt Murray - Called up by Nashville Murray was recalled from AHL Milwaukee on Thursday.

Impact The Predators have resumed practicing during the final week of the Olympic break, and Murray's recall will allow him to serve as the team's goaltender during practice until Juuse Saros returns from the Olympics. However, Murray will presumably head back to the Admirals ahead of Nashville's game against Chicago on Feb. 26. Over 29 appearances with Milwaukee this year, Murray has gone 12-14-2 with a 2.86 GAA and .904 save percentage.

Impact Saros was beaten twice in the first period, with both goals coming on a 1:26 span, but he was excellent the rest of the way. Saros is expected to remain the starter in a tough matchup against Canada on Friday.

Juuse Saros - Drawing start against Switzerland Saros will start for Finland during Wednesday's quarterfinal matchup against Switzerland at the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Impact After a shaky start to the Olympics in which he allowed three goals on 24 shots in a loss to Slovakia, Saros has settled down over his last two outings, turning aside 49 of the 50 shots he's seen in starts against Sweden and Italy. Saros will attempt to remain hot Wednesday in an attempt to propel Finland to the semifinals.

Alex Huang - Five points in Sunday's win Huang scored a goal and added four assists in QMJHL Chicoutimi's 9-1 win over Rimouski on Sunday.

Impact Huang had gone 14 games without a multi-point effort, spanning all of January and February prior to Sunday. This was his second five-point performance of the season. The Nashville prospect has matched his career high of eight goals and has 53 points and a plus-36 rating through 48 appearances this season.

Roman Josi - One of each against Czechia Josi scored a goal, distributed an assist and placed three shots on net in Switzerland's 4-3 overtime win over Czechia in Olympic round-robin play Sunday.

Impact Josi stole the show in the second period with both of his points occurring late in the period. He struck the back of the net to level the score at one apiece before sliding the primary helper on Timo Meier's power-play goal to take a 2-1 lead headed into the third period. Across round-robin play, Josi is up to three points and eight shots on net across three games. He'll likely be relied upon for more consistent offense if Switzerland is to advance beyond the first round of bracket play in the Olympic tournament.

Juuse Saros - Busiest netminder at Olympics Saros made 15 saves Saturday in Team Finland's 11-0 win over Team Italy at the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026.

Impact Saros had backstopped Finland to a 4-1 win over Sweden on Friday. Finland is now in a strong position to earn the wild card with a plus-11 goal differential, and that would mean a bye to the quarterfinals. That's great news for Saros, who has played 178:49 in the tournament -- that's the most of any netminder. He's 2-1-0 with a 1.34 GAA and .946 save percentage in three games started.

Juuse Saros - Sharp in win over Sweden Saros made 34 saves in Finland's 4-1 win over Sweden in Olympic round-robin action Friday.

Impact A Rasmus Dahlin power-play tally was the only puck to get past Saros is an impressive performance. The Predators netminder has allowed four goals on 59 shots through two Olympic outings, but he could get a breather Saturday against Italy, with Joonas Korpisalo or Kevin Lankinen getting the nod for Finland instead.

Juuse Saros - Facing Sweden Saros will be between the pipes versus Sweden on Friday at the 2026 Winter Olympics, according to Finnish reporter Ville Touro.

Impact Saros will make his second start for Finland after allowing three goals on 24 shots in a 4-1 loss to Slovakia on Wednesday. Saros is 21-17-5 with a 3.20 GAA and an .892 save percentage across 44 appearances for Nashville this season. It's a must-win game for Finland against their archrivals from Sweden, as another loss will severely hurt their chances of qualifying for the quarter-finals.
