The 35-year-old blueliner has two goals, seven points, 32 shots on net, 16 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 11 appearances.

Impact Josi missed 12 games due to an upper-body injury. He's since reclaimed his spots on the top power-play unit and first pairing at even strength, which should allow him to be a steady contributor on offense even on a low-scoring team. He's at six points, 29 shots on net, 16 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating through 10 appearances this season.

Ripples twine in loss Josi scored a goal on four shots, blocked three shots and went minus-3 in Tuesday's 7-4 loss to the Maple Leafs.

Impact Josi's offense has been up to par so far -- he has a goal and two assists over four games. The defensive side hasn't been quite as good, as the Swiss blueliner has a minus-2 rating with 11 blocked shots. Josi missed 29 games in 2024-25, so he may still be shaking off some rust. He's playing a massive role in all situations as usual, so fantasy managers should be cautiously optimistic about his production for the remainder of the campaign.

Tallies assist in season opener Josi posted an assist and blocked five shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over Columbus.

Impact Josi grabbed an apple on the power play during Ryan O'Reilly's game-winning goal. The 35-year-old Josi, as well as the rest of the Predators roster, struggled a year ago. Josi missed 29 games between a lower-body injury and a concussion, so his power-play assist on the game-winning tally was a welcome sight for all Nashville fans. The star blueliner posted his second-best offensive season just two years ago in 2023-24 with 85 points, and has showcased that he still has a lot left to give. Josi is a clear bounce-back candidate for the 2025-26 season and will challenge many of the league's best defenseman in points if he can stay healthy.
