O'Reilly provided an assist, five shots on goal and three blocked shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly's goal drought is up to 10 games, but he was able to pick up his seventh assist in that span when he helped out on a Filip Forsberg tally. This was O'Reilly's first helper since the NHL resumed play after the 4 Nations Face-Off, and it came amid a lineup shuffle that reunited O'Reilly, Forsberg and Gustav Nyquist on the Predators' top line. For the season, O'Reilly has 35 points, 105 shots on net, 52 blocked shots and a minus-19 rating over 55 appearances. His scoring is down, but he remains a key two-way player in a top-six role.

O'Reilly racked up four assists and two shots on goal in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
One of O'Reilly's helpers came on the power play. He set up two goals each for Filip Forsberg and Brady Skjei -- all four of the assists were primaries for O'Reilly in one of the best games of his career. This was also his first multi-point effort since his hat trick in Calgary on Jan. 4. The center is up to 34 points (14 goals, 20 assists), 96 shots on net, 46 blocked shots and a minus-18 rating over 51 appearances this season.

O'Reilly logged an assist and four shots on goal in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly's 800th career point came against one of his former teams -- he played for Buffalo from 2015-16 to 2017-18. The center achieved his latest milestone in his 1,120th game, and he sits four goals away from 300 in his career. It's been a bit of a down year for the 33-year-old in 2024-25 -- he has 14 goals, 15 assists, 91 shots on net, 44 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 47 appearances, but he was alright in January with seven points over 12 contests.

O'Reilly scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly has five goals and one assist over 10 outings in January. The center tied the game at 2-2 in the second period, but the Ducks ran away with the win by scoring the next three goals. O'Reilly is up to 14 goals, 28 points, 85 shots on net, 44 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 45 appearances this season. He's been steady enough to maintain a second-line role lately.

O'Reilly provided a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly helped out on the first of Filip Forsberg's two goals in the game. The 33-year-old O'Reilly had scored five times over the last seven games but had gone eight contests without a helper. The center is up to 13 goals, 14 assists, 10 power-play points, 78 shots on net, 41 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 42 appearances this season.

O'Reilly scored an empty-net goal and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly has five goals over his last six games despite failing to record a shot in two of those contests. The center is up to 13 tallies, 26 points, 73 shots on net, 38 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating through 40 appearances. With a little momentum in a second-line role, O'Reilly represents a decent depth center for fantasy, though historically the bulk of his point production has come in the form of assists.

O'Reilly scored three times on six shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Two of the goals came on the power play in the second period, and he added an empty-netter in the third. O'Reilly continued a productive stretch with his best game of the year. He has seven goals and four assists over his last 11 outings. With the Predators at least finding more offense in recent weeks, O'Reilly's recent surge should be at least somewhat sustainable. He's up to 12 goals, 25 points, 68 shots on net, 34 blocked shots and a minus-14 rating through 37 appearances.

O'Reilly scored a goal on five shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly has played well since returning from a lower-body injury. He has four goals and four assists over his last eight outings, with all of that action coming in a second-line role and on the first power-play unit. Typically, moving down the lineup doesn't help players, but it's worked for O'Reilly after a sluggish start to the season on the top line. The 33-year-old center is at nine goals, 22 points, 62 shots on net, 32 blocked shots and a minus-16 rating over 35 appearances.

O'Reilly logged an assist, three shots on goal and a minus-3 rating in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly has a goal and three assists during his four-game point streak. The center is up to 21 points (seven on the power play), 57 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and a minus-17 rating through 33 appearances this season. He's played in a second-line role since returning from a lower-body injury, and given the success of the Predators' first line in recent weeks, it's unlikely O'Reilly will be moving up any time soon.

O'Reilly scored a power-play goal in Monday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
O'Reilly found the back of the net just 30 seconds into the third period to give the Predators a three-goal lead with a wrister following an impressive set-up from Filip Forsberg and Jonathan Marchessault. This was O'Reilly's third straight game with at least one point, and he's been very productive since returning from a three-game absence due to a lower-body injury, putting up six points (three goals, three assists) in his last six appearances.
