Mikael Granlund Stats

Mikael Granlund is back with the Nashville Predators after signing a four-year pact worth $5 million AAV on Wednesday. Granlund is an interesting case because the Predators traded for him at the 2019 NHL Trade Deadline. He produced a handful of points then had just 30 points in 63 games during the 2019-20 season. Granlund was given a one-year show-me contract for $3.75 million. The center produced 27 points in 51 games but had five points in six playoff games. He played 19:28 a game this year so Nashville must have seen something. Granlund has some special teams value and is a good depth option at center for fantasy teams. He may never get back to that 2016-2018 form from Minnesota.

Nashville Predators forward Mikael Granlund set up two goals in Monday's 5-2 victory over Chicago as his line combined for six points. Calle Jarnkrok and Luke Kunin each had one goal and one assist. Granlund logged a massive 23:27 in the game, adding two shots to his line with a plus-one rating. The Finnish forward now has 11 goals and 20 points for the season in 43 games. The injury bug has bitten the Predators badly, but they have battled through it and are trying to hang on to a playoff spot. The team started a vital three-game set against Chicago on Monday. The matchup has suited well for Granlund, who boasts five points in six outings against the Blackhawks this season.

Nashville Predators forward Mikael Granlund delivered a two-point performance on Tuesday, helping the team beat the Blackhawks 3-2 in overtime. He scored the game-tying goal in the third period and set up Roman Josi for the game-winner. Yakov Trenin scored for the Predators as well. Granlund has now scored in back-to-back games and he'll look to keep it up in a rematch with Chicago on Wednesday. Having collected 24 points against the Blackhawks in his career, the 28-year-old Finn seems to enjoy this matchup more than most.
