O'Reilly scored a power-play goal in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
This was O'Reilly's second goal of the month, but the lack of productivity hasn't been due to a lack of chances since the 35-year-old veteran has recorded at least two shots on goal in seven of his eight contests in March. O'Reilly has been productive despite the recent slump, as he has 62 points (23 goals, 39 assists) in 67 games this season. As long as he continues to skate on the first line and attempt enough shots, the goals should come for O'Reilly.

O'Reilly notched an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly missed one game after dealing with an injury to his face near his eye. The 35-year-old returned to a top-line role and led Nashville forwards with 21:20 of ice time, so he appears fine going forward. For the season, the veteran center has 60 points, reaching that mark for the second time in three years with the Predators. He's added 122 shots on net, 47 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating across 62 appearances. O'Reilly has never had an 80-point campaign, but he could challenge that mark over the last quarter of the season.

EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly missed Thursday's 6-3 win over Boston because of the injury. He has 22 goals and 59 points in 61 appearances with the Predators in 2025-26. O'Reilly will return to his regular spot on the top line versus the Sabres. He should also see time on the power play and penalty kill.

EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly is having an outstanding season with 22 goals and 37 assists in 61 contests. His name has been bandied about in trade rumors, but it's expected that he will remain in Nashville this season. Filip Forsberg could replace O'Reilly on the top line, between Steven Stamkos and Jonathan Marchessault.
