Latest news
Ufko was assigned to AHL Milwaukee on Friday.
Ufko made 18 regular-season appearances with the Predators last year and was with the NHL club for Thursday's Opening Night matchup against the Wild. He was held scoreless with a shot on goal, a blocked shot and a minus-1 rating in 15:27 of ice time, but he'll head to the minors a day later. Despite his demotion Friday, it wouldn't be surprising to see Ufko carve out more regular playing time at the NHL level during the 2026-27 campaign.

Ufko bagged two apples in Thursday's 5-4 loss to Anaheim.
Ufko finished the season with back-to-back two-assist games. He impressed in 18 NHL games this season. He scored two goals and added nine assists in that span. Ufko also delivered 11 goals and 33 assists in 50 games with the AHL Milwaukee Admirals this season. He's a name worth remembering for next season.

Ufko distributed two assists and recorded two shots on net in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Sharks.
Ufko played a hand in both of Luke Evangelista's goals late in the third period, including the primary helper on his goal with just over a minute remaining. The pair of apples raised Ufko up to seven assists, nine points, 11 shots on net, 10 hits and 12 blocked shots across 17 games this season. The 22-year-old blueliner has continued to impress in his late-season trial with the Predators and has three assists over his last four games. He has a strong chance to make Nashville's roster at the start of the 2026-27 campaign, giving him upside in dynasty-based fantasy leagues.

Ufko scored a goal in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Kraken.
Ufko's two NHL goals have come against the Seattle -- he scored his first March 10 to help the Predators in another win in a key matchup for wild-card positioning. Ufko has two goals, three assists, five shots on net, three hits, two blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over seven total contests in a third-pairing role. His limited ice time (13:10 per game) makes him risky in fantasy, but there is scoring upside.
