Predators' Thomas Novak: Garners assist in win
Novak logged a power-play assist in Friday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Novak earned his first helper of the season on Brady Skjei's third-period tally, which was the game-winner. The 27-year-old Novak has four points, 16 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through seven contests so far. His ice time was limited to 10:45 in Friday's win, though it's unclear if he's in danger of being a healthy scratch. He'll have limited fantasy value in a bottom-six role, though if he can turn his performance around, he could be a candidate for the second line again.

Predators' Thomas Novak: Finds back of net Tuesday
Novak scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Bruins.
Novak recorded his third goal of the season Tuesday, but unlike in the previous two games in which he scored, this one contributed to Nashville's victory. The Predators have endured a tough start to the season, but Novak has found a way to stay productive, tallying three goals across six appearances while averaging 2.3 shots per game.

Predators' Thomas Novak: Tallies in Tuesday's loss
Novak netted a goal in Tuesday's 7-3 loss versus the Kraken.
Novak had a yawning cage to shoot at after being set up on his goal by Mark Jankowski, but it wasn't enough to help Nashville overcome Seattle's offensive outburst. Novak is filling a third-line role while skating on the second power-play unit, so he's not relied upon much for primary scoring. The 27-year-old has reached the 43-point mark in back-to-back seasons, and he should be able to post similar numbers in 2024-25.

Predators' Thomas Novak: Scores in Thursday's loss
Novak scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.
Novak began the game on the second line, but his goal came early in the third period when he switched places with Colton Sissons. The 27-year-old Novak has the talent to be a top-six forward, but he'll have to be consistent to keep that role this season. He put up 45 points, 113 shots on net and a minus-3 rating in 71 regular-season outings last year, and his fantasy value relies exclusively on offense since he adds almost no physical play.

Predators' Thomas Novak: Carries offense in preseason loss
Novak scored a goal and added two assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's preseason loss to the Hurricanes.
The 27-year-old center had a hand in every Nashville goal in a 5-3 loss, helping to set up Mark Jankowski with the man advantage in the first period and Cole Smith at even strength in the second before potting his own tally in the final stanza. Novak seems set in a top-six role, and while he may not see many shifts on the first power-play unit, he could see a lot of even-strength ice time alongside new teammates Steven Stamkos and Jonathan Marchessault. Novak set career highs with 18 goals and 45 points in 2023-24, but he could be poised to blow past those numbers given the talent upgrade around him.
