Predators expect captain Roman Josi back for camp despite health diagnosis

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Nashville captain Roman Josi is expected at training camp in September after the Predators said the defenseman was diagnosed with postural tachycardia syndrome or POTS late last season. 'He has been undergoing treatment since that diagnosis and is progressing exceptionally well,' general manager Barry Trotz said in a statement. 'We concur with Roman that with continued management and treatment, he can return to the ice for the 2025-26 season and continue with his elite hockey career.' The 2020 Norris Trophy winner and three-time All-Star was limited to 53 games this season by a concussion. His last game was Feb. 25 against now two-time Stanley Cup champion Florida when he didn't return after driven hard into the end boards by Sam Bennett midway through the second period. POTS doesn't have a cure but can be treated. Its symptoms include a fast heart rate, dizziness and fatigue. Josi, who turned 35 at the start of June, was among the first six players selected to Switzerland's Olympic roster for the 2026 Winter Games in Italy. The captain signed an eight-year $72 million contract in 2019 through the 2027-28 season. He has played 962 games with 190 goals and 534 assists. Trade time The Predators also announced they have acquired forward Erik Haula from New Jersey for defenseman Jeremy Hanzel and a fourth-round pick in next week's draft. This brings Haula back for a second stint with Nashville. A seventh-round pick by Minnesota in 2009, Haula has played 759 games with the Wild, Vegas, Carolina, Florida, Nashville, Boston and New Jersey. Now 34, Haula played 69 games for the Devils this season with 21 points and 39 penalty minutes. The 5-foot-11, 191-pound forward averaged 14 minutes, 42 seconds of ice time per game. He also had 101 hits and blocked 35 shots. The Predators still have nine selections in the 2025 NHL draft starting June 27, including three in the first round.

Predators captain Roman Josi diagnosed with POTS

June 18 - Nashville Predators captain Roman Josi is expected to attend training camp and play next season after being diagnosed with postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) toward the end of the NHL season, the team announced Wednesday. The symptoms of POTS -- a treatable condition that has no cure -- include a fast heart rate, dizziness and fatigue. The three-time All-Star was limited to 53 games in 2024-25 after suffering a concussion on Feb. 25 against the back-to-back champion Florida Panthers. Josi, 35, scored nine goals and added 29 assists. "He has been undergoing treatment since that diagnosis and is progressing exceptionally well," Predators general manager Barry Trotz said in a statement. "We concur with Roman that with continued management and treatment, he can return to the ice for the 2025-26 season and continue with his elite hockey career." The 2020 Norris Trophy winner was one of the first six players named to Switzerland's Olympic team on Monday ahead of the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympic Games. He played for the Swiss team at the 2014 Sochi Olympics and Team Europe at the 2016 World Cup. Josi has spent 14 seasons, his entire NHL career, with the Predators. In 962 games, the left-shot defenseman has 724 points (190 goals, 534 assists). He has added 12 goals and 33 assists in 91 playoff games. --Field Level Media
