Saros stopped all 43 shots that he faced in the Predators shutout win over the Golden Knights last Tuesday. Pekka Rinne started the last two games, but Saors is expected to see the Lightning tonight. Saros has gone 4-1-2 with a 1.14 GAA, .967 SV% and three shutouts in his last seven starts. Tampa Bay comes in on the tail-end of a back-to-back after a 2-0 win in Chicago last night.
Saros allowed three goals on 25 shots in the Predators loss in Arizona on January 4th. Despite this being their first game out of their bye week, it looks like Saros will get the nod over the rest Pekka Rinne. Following a poor start to the season, Saros has settled in recently, going 3-1-2 with a 1.33 GAA, .960 SV% and two shutouts in his last six starts.

Saros went to the AHL during the Predators bye week and has spent a decent amount of time with the Admirals this season. Overall he is 3-5-0 with a 2.88 GAA and .906 SV% in nine AHL games and 4-3-3 with a 2.42 GAA and .922 SV% in 11 NHL games.
Saros, 22, has gone 1-4-0 with a 3.80 GAA and .872 SV% in six games with the Admirals. Saros will head to Milwaukee to get some starts during the Predators bye week.
Saros stopped all 26 shots that he faced after replacing Pekka Rinne in the Predators loss to the Hurricanes on Thursday. After a rough start to the season, Saros has stopped 115 of the last 117 shots (.983 SV%) that he has faced coming into tonight’s game. One of those games came against the Stars, who he’ll face tonight—he stopped 43 of 45 shots in a 5-2 win on December 5th.
The Predators have five days off between games so Saros went to Milwaukee to get some playing time over the weekend. Saros started two games, going 1-1-0 while allowing nine goals on 69 shots (.870 SV%) and comes back to the Predators where he will likely start one of their back-to-back games on Wednesday/Thursday.
After tonight’s game, the Predators are off until Wednesday so they are sending Saros to Milwaukee to get him a few starts. The 22-year-old has gone 0-3-0 with a 3.53 GAA and .874 SV% in four games with Milwaukee this season.
The Predators continue to try and get Saros some playing time in the AHL when they know Pekka Rinne will start a stretch of games. With Nashville having a back-to-back on Monday/Tuesday, Saros has been recalled and will likely start one of those games. Saros has struggled this season, going 0-3-0 with a 3.53 GAA and .874 SV% in three AHL games and a 1-3-1 with a 3.71 GAA and .870 SV% with Nashville.
The Predators sent Saros down over the weekend to get him a few starts because he has sat as Pekka Rinne’s backup for the majority of the season so far. The 22-year-old, who has struggled his four NHL appearance so far, didn’t fare much better in the AHL, giving up seven goals on 52 shots (.912 SV%). Saros is still a developing, young goalie with a bright future ahead of him, but until he turns it around this season he is better left on the waiver wire.
It looked like Saros would have a chance to carve out a nice role this season after going 10-8-3 with a 2.35 GAA and .923 SV% last year. This year did not start well, with the 22-year-old going 1-3-0 with a 3.94 GAA and .855 SV% in his first four starts. Anders Lindback has been recalled to serve as the Predators No.2 netminder.
