Roman Josi | Fantasy Outlook
Josi anchors top pairing and power play in home clash against Blues
Roman Josi leads the Nashville Predators into Bridgestone Arena tonight for a Central Division clash against the St. Louis Blues. Nashville enters as slight home underdogs in a projected average-scoring environment, likely facing Jordan Binnington (unconfirmed) in net. Josi continues to command massive ice time, logging nearly 26 minutes per game with six assists, 15 shots, and 11 blocks over his last six outings. Skating on the top pairing alongside Steven Stamkos and Ryan O'Reilly while quarterbacking the loaded first power-play unit, Josi's elite deployment offers an exceptionally reliable floor.
Our projection for tonight expects Josi to produce ~1 point, ~2–3 shots on goal, and solid blocked-shot peripherals, translating to roughly 4.6 fantasy points with clear power-play upside. Tonight marks Nashville's final matchup of a three-game week, giving fantasy managers one last chance to capitalize on his heavy weekly volume. Between his workhorse minutes, PP1 quarterbacking, and consistent shot output, he remains one of the safest blueline options in fantasy hockey. Today's action: Strong Start.
