Roman Josi, the Nashville Predators' captain, is making a significant recovery from Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), which hindered his ability to play during the last season. General Manager Barry Trotz confirmed that Josi, who recorded 38 points in 53 games before his injury, is expected to fully participate in the upcoming training camp and season starting this fall. The 35-year-old defenseman has been proactive in managing his condition, which is characterized by an abnormal increase in heart rate upon standing, often leading to dizziness and fatigue.

Josi's resilience has not only kept him in the game mentally but also positioned him for a potential Olympic appearance in 2026 with Team Switzerland. Having previously clinched the Norris Trophy, Josi's career stats stand impressive with 724 points across 962 regular-season games. With his health improving, Josi remains a cornerstone for the Predators as they look to bounce back after a missed playoff opportunity last season.
