Nyquist scored an empty-net goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Friday's 6-3 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Nyquist had the first of the Predators' two empty-netters to seal the win. That left his point streak on the line late, but the goal extended it to 10 games (seven tallies, seven assists). It's a strong run for a winger enjoying a good campaign -- Nyquist has 11 goals and 34 points through 42 appearances.

Nyquist scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, went plus-3 and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Nyquist opened the scoring by capitalizing on a turnover in the Stars' zone. He also set up the the first of Filip Forsberg's two tallies in the third period to restore the Predators' lead. During his eight-game point streak, Nyquist has six goals and six helpers. He's been good in a top-line all season, but this has been one of his best runs. The winger has 10 tallies, 22 helpers, 79 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over 40 appearances.

Nyquist notched a power-play assist in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Nyquist extended his point streak to five games when he set up Roman Josi's first-period tally. The 34-year-old Nyquist also had one of the Predators' shootout goals. He's earned four goals and three helpers during his streak, and the winger is now at eight goals, 19 helpers, 74 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 37 contests overall. He should continue to find plenty of offense in a top-line role, though it's unclear if he's got enough time to challenge his career high of 60 points from the 2018-19 campaign.

Nyquist scored a pair of goals, including one shorthanded, and added an assist in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Nyquist is on a nice scoring run right now, producing four goals and two assists in his last four games. He could take run at the 50-point mark this campaign after posting 26 points through 36 contests. He's currently meshing well with Filip Forsberg and Ryan O'Reilly on the first line.

Nyquist scored a goal on four shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Nyquist opened the scoring midway through the first period, deflecting an Alexandre Carrier shot past Samuel Ersson to give Nashville a 1-0 lead. It's the first goal in eight games for Nyquist, who now has four goals and 19 points through 29 games this season. The veteran winger should continue to skate on the Predators' first line while also logging time on the top power-play unit.

Nyquist scored a power-play goal on four shots in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Nyquist's goal in the second period ended up being the game-winner. The winger is riding an eight-game point streak, though he's often been much more of a playmaker in that span with two goals and eight helpers during the streak. He's at three goals, 15 points (six on the power play), 43 shots on net and a plus-5 rating through 20 contests overall. Nyquist's offense will likely drop slightly from his recent level, but his spot on the top line gives him a safe floor for fantasy managers in need of a scoring winger.

Nyquist tallied a pair of assists in Monday's 4-3 win over Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
Nyquist set up Jeremy Lauzon early in the second period before adding a second helper on Filip Forsberg's game-tying goal in the final minute of the third. The 34-year-old Nyquist now has points in five straight games, tallying a goal and six assists in that span. He's up to two goals and 10 assists through his first 17 games this season while playing alongside Forsberg and Ryan O'Reilly on the Preds' top line.

Nyquist supplied two assists in Saturday's 7-5 loss to the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Nyquist has just one goal early this season, but the veteran winger's fantasy value is propped a bit by seven helpers -- including three on the power play -- through 14 games. Nyquist is averaging 15:37 of ice time in his first season with Nashville, which is slightly under his 12-year career average of 16;52 between five clubs.
