Justin Barron - Bags apple Sunday Barron notched an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Lightning.

Impact Barron was scratched three times recently, but he's been back in the lineup for the last two games. He stayed in over Ryan Ufko for Sunday's contest after the Predators dressed seven blueliners Saturday versus the Canadiens. Barron has three assists over 12 outings in March and is up to eight helpers, 26 shots on net, 31 hits, 47 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 44 appearances this season.

Adam Wilsby - Snags helper Sunday Wilsby logged an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Lightning.

Impact This was Wilsby's first point in five contests since he returned from a 10-game absence due to a lower-body injury. The 25-year-old defenseman has stayed in the lineup since he returned, mainly playing in a third-pairing role. He's now at 13 points, 50 shots on net, 39 blocked shots, 21 hits, 29 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 50 appearances this season.

Justus Annunen - Beaten three times Sunday Annunen stopped 25 of 28 shots in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Lightning.

Impact Annunen didn't play in the 4-1 loss to Montreal on Saturday, but he's lost back-to-back starts for the second time since the beginning of the month. Annunen has also posted a save percentage below .900 in three of his six starts since the beginning of March, and given the Predators' recent defensive struggles, it's hard to trust the 26-year-old in most formats right now, especially since he's a matchup-based option as he's the backup behind Juuse Saros.

Filip Forsberg - Scores, assists in loss Forsberg recorded a goal and an assist in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Lightning.

Impact Forsberg cracked the scoresheet after a two-game stretch in which he went pointless, and he remains one of the most influential players for the Predators even if the team dropped a third consecutive contest. Forsberg is up to 34 goals and 33 assists in 74 games this season, and he's within reach of posting at least 70 points for a third consecutive campaign before the end of the regular season.

Joakim Kemell - Pots goal vs. Tampa Bay Kemell scored a goal in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Lightning.

Impact Kemell scored the first goal of his NHL career with a deflection at the 8:31 mark of the first period. However, he hasn't taken a single shot in four of his eight appearances this season, and as a fourth-line rookie, he's not expected to have much upside in the final weeks of the regular season. Kemell is averaging just 0.75 shots per game in his eight outings in 2025-26.

Jordan Oesterle - Nets two goals for Admirals Oesterle scored twice in AHL Milwaukee's 3-2 overtime win over Grand Rapids on Sunday.

Impact Oesterle's hot March continues -- he's netted nine goals and added two assists over his last 10 contests. That gives the defenseman 14 goals and 28 helpers through 63 appearances this season. While he's been a full-time AHL player in 2025-26, he could be the next man up if the Predators need defensive depth late in the campaign.

Justus Annunen - Starting trip opener Annunen will get the start in net for Sunday's game against the Lightning, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

Impact Annunen's three-game streak of games with a save percentage of .900 or better was snapped last time out after he surrendered three goals on 29 shots in a loss to the Devils. He'll have a chance to rebound Sunday against the Lightning. The 26-year-old has an 8-10-2 record on the season with a 2.90 GAA and an .898 save percentage. The Lightning have scored at least three goals in seven straight games.

Juuse Saros - Beaten four times in loss Saros stopped 28 of 32 shots in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Montreal.

Impact Saros saw his three-game winning streak end abruptly, and this was the first time he allowed at least four goals since Feb. 4, when he gave up six goals in a 6-5 defeat to the Wild. Saros was coming off posting a save percentage north of .900 in four of his previous five starts before this game, so this was clearly a step in the wrong direction for the 30-year-old goaltender.

Zachary L'Heureux - Scores in heavy loss L'Heureux scored a goal in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Canadiens.

Impact The 22-year-old has played regularly in March, but this was just his second goal of the season, and his playing time as a bottom-six forward has also been inconsistent. With that in mind, L'Heureux isn't a player worth targeting off the wire in most formats with the fantasy playoffs in full swing in most formats. He also carries minimal DFS appeal.
