Roman Josi

During the 2010 NLA playoffs, Josi led all defensemen and tied for fourth overall in goals as SC Bern won the Championship title.

[10] He participated in their Rookie and Training Camp before being assigned to their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Milwaukee Admirals, for the remainder of the season.

[11] Although he missed the first seven games of the season,[12] Josi helped the team improve to a 5–0–0–1 record by scoring his first career AHL goal in a 3–2 win over the Lake Erie Monsters in early November.

[16] As the Admirals qualified for the 2011 Calder Cup playoffs, Josi finished the regular season with six goals and 34 assists for 30 points through 69 games.

[18] Josi once again participated in the Predators training camp before being placed on injured reserve with the expectation he would report to the Admirals once recovered for the 2011–12 season.

[22] After star defenseman and captain Shea Weber suffered an injury, Josi saw his ice time spike to an average of 23:43 for four games during his absence.

[34] After the Predators lost Ryan Suter, Josi stepped into a bigger role on the ice alongside Shea Weber.

He completely replaced Suter on the Predators' top defencemen pairing with Weber and averaged nearly 26:30 minutes of ice time per game.

[42] Upon returning from the Olympics, Josi continued to produce and tied with Patric Hörnqvist for second on the team with 21 assists by mid-March.

[51] During the Predators first-round matchup against the eventual Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks, Josi set and tied numerous franchise records.

[53][54] Before the start of the 2015–16 season, Josi was named the third alternate captain for the Predators alongside Mike Fisher and James Neal.

[57] His overall play earned him his first-time selection for the 2016 NHL All-Star Game along with teammates Pekka Rinne, Shea Weber, and James Neal.

[62] At the end of the month, during a loss to the Colorado Avalanche, Josi set a new franchise record for most points by a defenseman in Predators history.

[66] Josi tallied three points as the Predators eliminated the Ducks in the first Game 7 of their franchise history to advance to the Western Conference Second Round against the San Jose Sharks.

[69] During the 2016 off-season, the Predators acquired star defenceman P. K. Subban from the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for captain Shea Weber.

[83] Josi missed the first three games of the season due to a lower-body injury but he made an immediate impact with two points in his return on 17 October.

[86] Once Ryan Ellis returned from injury in January, he was reunited with Josi as the Predators top defence pairing while Ekholm joined Subban.

[94] On 5 April, Josi and the Predators clinched their first Central Division title in franchise history and won the Presidents' Trophy as the team with the most points during the NHL regular season.

[102] Josi continued to rank second behind centre Ryan Johansen on the Predators through February with 14 goals and 37 assists for 51 points through 67 games.

[109] Despite his teams' struggles, Josi was an early favourite to win the James Norris Memorial Trophy as the league's best defenceman.

[123] Josi also became the eighth defenseman in NHL history to lead a team in scoring at the end of a season with at least 15 points over the next-closest skater.

[124] Once the NHL resumed play, Josi and the Predators faced off against the Arizona Coyotes in the 2020 Stanley Cup Qualifiers in the expanded 2020 playoffs.

[125] Although the season was shortened due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Josi set new career highs in goals, assists, and points and became the first Predators player and Swiss to win the James Norris Memorial Trophy.

[126] Following his Norris Trophy win, Predators head coach John Hynes announced his plans to cut down on Josi's penalty-killing minutes in order to conserve his energy.

[133] Following a 3–0 shutout of the Blackhawks on 3 April, Josi passed Mark Streit to become the highest-scoring Swiss-born NHL player with 435 points.

Josi became the fourth player in franchise history to hit the 700 games played mark, behind David Legwand, Shea Weber, and Martin Erat.

As such, he was considered an early candidate for the Norris Trophy alongside Adam Fox of the New York Rangers and Aaron Ekblad of the Florida Panthers.

After tallying another assist in the 5–2 win over the Winnipeg Jets, Josi also became the eighth active defenseman to record his 114th career multi-point game.

He helped raise funds to support the Nashville Strong tornado relief efforts[179] and donated $20,000 to the Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee.
