Kevin Klein was the only Nashville goal scorer in a 3-1 loss to the Blue Jackets Thursday.

Klein isn't the most likely source of offense for Nashville as the goal was just his third of the campaign. Patric Hornqvist and David Legwand drew assists on the marker.

Predators defenseman Kevin Klein was assessed his first penalty of the season in Saturday's loss to San Jose.

Amazingly, Klein had not amassed any penalty minutes since October 29, 2011, which was the only game in which he took a penalty during the 2011-12 season. This, of course, is actually bad news for those playing in rotisserie formats since PIM are typically rewarded, but it's an astounding feat nonetheless.

Kevin Klein has accumulated just four penalty minutes in his last 75 games.

"For the most part, I think one of my strengths is the penalty kill, and you want to be out there to kill penalties for other guys," Klein said. His discipline is great for his team, but it's something that actually hurts most fantasy owners. Klein doesn't do enough offensively to justify owning him in standard leagues, but he has some value in leagues that use alternate stats like blocked shots.

Kevin Klein was given a lot of attention while playing for Herlev Eagles of the Danish League.

"They had pictures of him made so they could sell them, that he signed. He would always get interviewed after the game in front of the VIP people. There was this huge spray-painted sign saying, 'Welcome Klein No. 18,' and fans would chant his name," Kevin Klein's sister, Laura said. "He wasn't given everything, but the fans supported him to the fullest, not even knowing who he was. They just knew he was (an NHL) hockey player." Klein had a goal and three points in eight games. He's returned home while the Danish League is on break.
