Saros saved 29 of 35 shots on net in Monday's 7-3 loss to Utah.

EDGE Analysis

Saros' struggles Monday night were spread throughout the game as he allowed two goals in all three periods of the contest. With the loss, Saros has a 19-31-6 record with a 3.02 GAA and a .894 save percentage in 57 appearances this season. He's lost four of his last five outings and has allowed 21 goals in that span. However, if he's elected to start the final game of the season for Nashville, he'll still have the opportunity to reach the 20-win mark for the fifth consecutive season. Regardless, the 29-year-old netminder will quickly want to put this season behind him and aim toward a bounceback in the 2025-26 season.

Saros will patrol the home crease against Utah on Monday, Alex Daugherty of The Tennessean reports.

EDGE Analysis

Saros snapped a three-game losing streak, during which he gave up 12 goals, with this strong performance. The Predators erased a two-goal deficit, and while they couldn't hold a lead for long in the third period, Saros was sharp late and also stopped all three shootout attempts. He's up to 19-30-6 with a 2.96 GAA and an .895 save percentage over 56 outings. This will go down as Saros' worst full year in the NHL, though the 29-year-old could still get a couple more games to try to finish on a high note. The Predators visit the Golden Knights on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Saros has dropped three straight starts. He's gotten the nod in just four of the Predators' last seven games, and he hasn't gone more than three games in a row since Feb. 25 through March 1. This has given Justus Annunen a chance to prove his long-term value to Nashville, though Saros is signed through 2032-33 on an extension that kicks in next season. This year has been a lost one for Saros, who is 18-30-6 with a 2.97 GAA and an .894 save percentage over 55 appearances. The Predators' next game is at home Tuesday versus the Islanders.

Saros allowed seven goals on 26 shots playing the first two periods of Tuesday's 8-4 loss to Columbus.

EDGE Analysis

Columbus sits in the NHL's top-10 for goals scored this season, so a big game like this really shouldn't be a surprise. And Saros can't really be faulted with a young team in front of him that seemed to pile on self-inflicted wounds. He's had a rough season, but he's an elite netminder. Saros will be a better option in future seasons.

Saros will defend the crease against the Jackets on the road Tuesday, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

EDGE Analysis

Saros has struggled this season, managing just 18 wins in 53 appearances this year while posting a career-worst 2.89 GAA. This will be the first time since the 2020-21 campaign that Saros fails to reach the 30-win mark. With the Preds eliminated from postseason contention, the club could decide to split the workload between Saros and Justus Annunen down the stretch in order to get a better look at the 25-year-old Annunen.

EDGE Analysis

Saros has been struggling for consistency of late, going 2-3-0 despite a decent 2.42 GAA in his last five outings. With the loss, the Predators were officially eliminated from playoff contention. FOr his part, the 29-year-old netminder will miss the 30-win threshold for the first time since 2020-21, though he should still be capable of getting to 20 victories considering he is just two shy.
