Juuse Saros

It was a season of growth and living up to the pressure for Juuse Saros as he often times carried the Nashville Predators to big wins as the team made the postseason once again. Following Pekka Rinne‘s retirement last offseason, the spotlight was on Saros having to carry the heavy...

Jacob Markstrom, Juuse Saros, and Igor Shesterkin were announced Tuesday as finalists for the NHL's 2021-22 Vezina Trophy, awarded annually to the "goaltender who is adjudged to be the best at this position." All three goalies are first-time finalists in this category. The league's 32 general managers vote on the...

Departure was anything but sweet for Juuse Saros after hearing a "pop" in his left ankle April 26. The Nashville Predators goalie limped off the ice during the third period against the Calgary Flames, fear and sorrow in his wake with the NHL playoffs looming in less than a week. ...

Over the next week, the NHL will be releasing the finalists for all of the major regular-season awards. After Monday’s Norris announcement, next up is the Vezina Trophy, which is given to the best goaltender in the NHL and is voted on by the league’s general managers. This...

Nashville’s Juuse Saros has been named a finalist for the Vezina Trophy. A day after Roman Josi was named a finalist for the Norris Trophy (for a second time), the Predators netminder Saros was named a finalist for the Vezina. While Saros has been unavailable in the playoffs due...

First, he was a first-time All-Star. Now, Nashville Predators goalie Juuse Saros is a first-time Vezina Trophy finalist. The league announced Tuesday morning that Saros was a finalist, along with the New York Rangers' Igor Shesterkin and the Calgary Flames' Jacob Markstrom. NHL general managers vote on the award based on regular-season play. The winner we...

Saros said he felt a pop when he injured his ankle versus the Flames on April 26, Adam Vingan of The Athletic reports. Saros also confirmed that he has returned to skating and likely would have been ready in a few weeks. The 27-year-old should have plenty of time to heal up ahead of the 2022-23 campaign, where he'll presumably serve as the Predators' top goalie again. He finished 2022-23 with a 38-25-3 record, a 2.64 GAA and a .918 save percentage in a career-high 67 games.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Predators coach John Hynes has ruled goaltender Juuse Saros out for Game 3 of Nashville's series with the Colorado Avalanche. Connor Ingram, Nashville's third goaltender who played well in the Predators' 2-1 overtime loss at Colorado Thursday night that put them in a 2-0 hole, appears to be in line to get Saturday's start in front of the home crowd.

A barely audible "Juuse" replaced the words "you see" during the national anthem before the Nashville Predators faced the Colorado Avalanche in Game 3 of their first-round playoff series Saturday at Bridgestone Arena. Customary before most games, except All-Star goalie Juuse Saros wasn't in uniform for the home team, still sidelined with the lower-body injury that has caused his absence this series. ...

While it was previously reported that there was some hope that injured Nashville Predators starting goaltender Juuse Saros would be able to play after the first two games of his team’s first-round series against the Colorado Avalanche, it seems that timeline may have been a bit optimistic. On Friday,...

Saros (lower body) won't be available for Game 4 against the Avalanche on Monday, per coach John Hynes, Nick Cotsonika of NHL.com reports. The Predators have fallen into a 3-0 hole without their starting goaltender and won't have him available as they face elimination Monday. Barring a surprising victory by his team to keep the season going, Saros will have missed every playoff game after getting his team there with a 38-win regular season. Game 5 would be Wednesday if necessary.

Ingram saw action in the Predators' 7-2 loss in Game 1, making 32 saves in relief of veteran backup David Rittich. Rittich was pulled from the game late in the first period after allowing five goals off 13 shots. The 24-year-old made his NHL debut during the regular season, starting...

Saros (lower body) won't be in the lineup for Saturday's Game 3 against the Avalanche, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports. The Predators are already down 2-0 to Colorado in the series, so Saros may not have enough time to heal up and return to action before Nashville is eliminated. With Saros on the shelf and David Rittich struggling, Connor Ingram will get the start in goal Saturday against the Avalanche.

DENVER — The return of the All-Star goalie Juuse Saros is a "possibility," according to Nashville Predators coach John Hynes. Hynes said Thursday morning that Saros, who is out with a lower-body injury, could return after his team's first-round playoff series with the Colorado Avalanche shifts to Nashville this weekend. ...

Saros (lower body) could be cleared to play for Game 3 or 4 versus the Avalanche back in Nashville, Adam Vingan of The Athletic reports. Saros is coming off a career year in which he set new highs in games (67) and wins (38). Without the 27-year-old Finn available, the Predators will look to Connor Ingram for Game 2 in Colorado. Whenever cleared to play, Saros should immediately reclaim his place between the pipes.

DENVER — A mustachioed man wielding a hockey stick stuck mostly to himself Wednesday, firing puck after puck toward an empty net as he skated on one side of the ice inside Ball Arena after the Nashville Predators had wrapped up an afternoon practice. All-Star goalie Juuse Saros dressed casual, ditching his goalie...
