Juuse Saros has been struggling this season, facing criticism for the Nashville Predators’ recent performance. Despite his previous success as a reliable goaltender, Saros has encountered challenges in maintaining his form. Analysts suggest that the team’s defensive structure may be a contributing factor to his struggles.

The Predators' defense has shown inconsistencies, leading to high-scoring chances against Saros. This situation has raised questions about the effectiveness of the defensive game plan and its impact on Saros's ability to perform at his best. The defensive unit's lackluster performance has not only affected Saros but also the team's overall standing in the league.

As the Predators look to bounce back, the focus will be on improving their defensive play to aid Saros in regaining his confidence. With the season still ongoing, fans and analysts alike are watching closely to see how the team addresses these issues and whether Saros can return to the stellar form that made him a standout goaltender in the NHL.
