  • Predators' Brady Skjei: Sets up overtime tally

    Skjei produced an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.

    Skjei extended his point streak to three games when he fed Jonathan Marchessault for the game-winning goal in overtime. The 30-year-old Skjei has two goals and two assists over eight contests this season. The defenseman has added 26 shots on net, nine blocked shots, eight PIM and a minus-2 rating. While he's been listed as a third-pairing defenseman, Skjei functions as the No. 2 blueliner behind Roman Josi in Nashville.

  • Predators' Brady Skjei: Scores go-ahead goal

    Skjei scored a power-play goal on three shots, added two PIM and blocked two shots in Friday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Skjei has a goal and an assist over his last two games. The 30-year-old defenseman had some struggles on defense before making up for those lapses with the game-winning goal at 13:07 of the third period. He's at three points, 24 shots on net, nine blocked shots, eight PIM and a minus-4 rating over seven outings this season. Skjei and Roman Josi were paired together Friday, though head coach Andrew Brunette may occasionally move Skjei back to the second pairing.

  • Predators' Brady Skjei: Collects helper Tuesday

    Skjei produced an assist, four shots on goal, four PIM and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Bruins.

    Skjei has had a slow start to his time with Nashville, picking up a goal and an assist through six contests. The 30-year-old defenseman has maintained a top-four role and still has the second-best scoring potental among the team's blueliners, trailing only Roman Josi. Skjei has added 21 shots on net, seven blocked shots, three hits, six PIM and a minus-3 rating while averaging 21:03 of ice time.

  • Predators' Brady Skjei: First goal with new club

    Skjei scored his first goal of the season in Tuesday's 7-3 defeat to Seattle.

    Skjei fired home a rebound late in the second period of Tuesday's loss, but it was the last marker of the game for Nashville. The left-shot defenseman added five shots, one block and a minus-1 rating in 22:51 of ice time. Skjei is coming off his most productive season in his 10-year NHL career -- he generated 47 points in 80 regular-season games with Carolina in 2023-24. As a result, Skjei was rewarded with a seven-year contract from Nashville in July. The former first-round pick is serving in a top-four capacity and seeing time on the power play.

  • Predators' Brady Skjei: Inks seven-year deal

    Skjei agreed to terms on a seven-year, $49 million contract with Nashville on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    Skjei is the third big signing for the Predators on the first day of free agency, joining Steven Stamkos and Jonathan Marchessault in the Music City. Last season, the 30-year-old Skjei set new personal bests with 47 points and 12 power-play points in 80 regular-season games. While Roman Josi won't be giving up his spot on the No. 1 power-play unit, Skjei could be tasked with quarterbacking the second group, which should bolster his fantasy value heading into the 2024-25 campaign.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Nets game-winner on power play

    Skjei scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rangers in Game 4.

    Ryan Lindgren took a tripping penalty late in the third period, and Skjei made the Rangers pay. The goal was Skjei's first of the playoffs, but he's been heavily involved with seven assists and 20 shots on net over nine postseason appearances. The defenseman also has a plus-6 rating, 15 hits and 11 blocked shots as he continues to thrive in a top-four role.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Supplies assist in Game 3

    Skjei collected an assist in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss against the Rangers in Game 3.

    Skjei has recorded a helper in consecutive contests, bringing him up to seven assists in eight playoff outings this year. This has been his most successful postseason run in terms of personal offensive production. His previous career high in playoff points came in 2017 when he recorded four goals and five points across 12 outings as a member of the Rangers. However, his offensive output hasn't been enough to push Carolina past his former team -- New York has a 3-0 series lead going into Game 4 on Saturday.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Records assist Tuesday

    Skjei notched an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 4-3 double-overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 2.

    Skjei assisted on Dmitry Orlov's late first-period tally to give Carolina a 2-1 lead heading into the second frame. As Orlov skated towards the front of the net from the corner, Skjei floated a shot from the point that was redirected past Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin. However, the 30-year-old Skjei ultimately took a penalty in overtime that New York took advantage of to win the game. Look for Skjei to rebound with a strong effort in Game 3 on Thursday.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Earns two assists in win

    Skjei recorded two assists in a 6-3 victory over the Islanders in Game 5 on Tuesday.

    While Skjei remains goalless in his last 11 outings, the blueliner has tallied an impressive 10 helpers over that stretch, including three with the man advantage. With injuries piling up among the Canes' defensemen, the 30-year-old Skjei could see an uptick in both even strength and power-play minutes heading into the next round of the playoffs.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Dishes pair of assists

    Skjei registered two assists, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Islanders in Game 1.

    Skjei helped out on the first two Hurricanes goals in the contest, including Evgeny Kuznetsov's opening tally on the power play. Skjei was on a five-game assist streak to end the regular season, though he was rested for the final two contests. The 30-year-old had a career-high 47 points with 90 blocked shots and 185 shots on net over 80 appearances this year, so he could offer some all-around fantasy value from the blue line in playoff competitions.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Returning to lineup

    Skjei (rest) was back at practice Thursday after getting Tuesday's game versus Columbus off, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

    Skjei missed the last two games of the regular season, as coach Rod Brind'Amour gave him some time off in order to be healthy and ready for the team's playoff matchup versus the Islanders. Skjei had a five-game point streak at the end of the season, finishing the 2023-24 campaign with 13 goals and a career-high 47 points. He will likely be paired alongside Brett Pesce entering the postseason.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Not playing after all

    Skjei (rest) will be out of the lineup Tuesday versus the Blue Jackets, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

    Skjei was poised to rejoin the lineup after also resting in Sunday's 4-2 victory over Chicago, but he'll instead get another game off heading into the postseason. The 30-year-old defenseman ends the regular season at a career-high 47 points with 185 shots on net, 90 blocked shots, 69 hits and a plus-15 rating over 80 appearances. Skjei should be good for a top-four role in the playoffs.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Back in action

    Skjei (rest) will be in the lineup Tuesday versus the Blue Jackets, according to Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

    Skjei will play on the top pairing with Brent Burns after sitting out Sunday's 4-2 win over Chicago for roster management purposes. The 30-year-old Skjei has 13 goals, 47 points, 185 shots on net and 90 blocked shots in 80 contests this campaign.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Out Sunday

    Skjei will not play Sunday against Chicago, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

    As things stand, it sounds like Skjei is simply getting a rest day after suiting up for Carolina's first 80 games. The veteran blueliner has racked up 13 goals among his career-high 47 points this season. He'll likely be back in the lineup for Tuesday's regular-season finale against Columbus.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Extends assist streak

    Skjei recorded an assist and six shots on goal in Friday's 5-2 win over the Blues.

    Skjei has an assist in five straight games as he puts the finishing touches on a career-best campaign. The 30-year-old defenseman has played in all 80 games with just two more to go in the regular season, adding 13 goals and 34 assists to complement 69 hits and 90 blocked shots. Heading into the 2023-24 campaign, Skjei had never cleared seven points on the power play in a given season, but he's stepped up on special teams, adding a goal and 11 helpers on the man advantage and dropping four more points shorthanded. Skjei could hit the open market as an unrestricted free agent this summer, so the 30-year-old blueliner picked a lucrative time to post the best offensive numbers of his career.

  • Hurricanes' Brady Skjei: Career season continues

    Skjei scored a goal for the third time in his last four games in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Red Wings.

    Skjei has been on a pretty remarkable run lately, with six points in his last six games (3G, 3A), giving him a career-high 42 points (13G, 29A) with eight games remaining. Skjei has been a terrific source of secondary scoring from the Canes' blue line this season, which has earned him a spot on the second power-play unit where he's averaging almost a minute of ice time per game. Seven of Skjei's 42 points have come with the man advantage this season (4G, 3A), which boosts his fantasy value even further.
