      Alexandre Carrier (upper body) is out week-to-week.

      Carrier left Thursday's matchup vs. Minnesota after just three shifts and 1:39 TOI after being the recipient of a questionable hit from Kirill Kaprizov and is considered out week-to-week with an upper-body injury. He has been enjoying a solid start to 2023-24, with a goal, seven assists, 16 SOG, 12 PIMs and a +3 plus/minus in 22 games prior to his injury.

      Juuse Saros will start Thursday vs. Minnesota.

      Saros will start for the third straight game and look for his fifth consecutive victory as the red-hot Predators are riding a six-game winning streak. After a shaky start to the season, recording only four wins in his first 13 games (4-9-0) and a .892 SV%, Saros has looked more like himself during his current four-game winning streak, boasting a .925 SV%. The Predators are averaging 4.33 goals per game during this six-game stretch and are -115 home favourites against a Minnesota Wild team that ranks second-worst in the league defensively (3.80 GA / GP).

      Saros will start against the Penguins on Tuesday.

      Saros is the starter for the Predators on Tuesday as they look to extend their season-best winning streak to six games. Saros started the season playing some of the worst hockey of his career, recording a .892 SV% through 13 games (4-9-0), but seems to have levelled off to more familiar territory, posting a substantially better .920 SV% in his last three games (3-0-0). The Predators are slight -106 home favourites against a Pittsburgh Penguins team that has four of their last six (2-4-0).

      Spencer Stastney has been reassigned to Milwaukee (AHL).

      Stastney appeared in the Predators' previous five games and picked up a goal, four SOG, four PIMs and a +4 plus/minus during his short showing but has been reassigned to Milwaukee (AHL) Tuesday. The 23-year-old defender returns to the minors, where he had a goal and three assists in 10 games prior to his promotion.

      Jesse Saros was the first goalie off the ice at Nashville's morning skate.

      Saros will start against the Flames on Wednesday.

      Saros is coming off his first victory in November thanks to heroics from his Predators teammates, who scored two goals in the final minute to overcome a 3-2 deficit and win 4-3 over the Colorado Avalanche. Through 14 games this season, Saros remarkably only has two quality starts (.357) after registering at least a .618 quality start rate in his four previous seasons. This string of poor play is unfamiliar territory for the perennial Vezina-finalist. The Predators hope his most recent victory can help jump-start Saros back into the netminder he has proven himself to be over the past half-decade. Saros and the Predators are slight -103 home underdogs against a Calgary Flames team that has scored four or more goals in three straight (2-0-1).

      Luke Evangelista will draw back into the Predators' lineup Wednesday vs. Calgary.

      Evangelista was a surprising healthy scratch on Monday but will return to the lineup on Wednesday and skate alongside Kiefer Sherwood and Juuso Parssinen on the Predators' second line. Evangelista has nine points (1G / 8A) in 16 games this season, averaging 15:02 time-on-ice.

      Cody Glass (upper body) is week-to-week and has been placed on the injured reserve.

      Glass picked up his first assist, of the season and played 13:07 TOI Monday vs. Colorado but was announced week-to-week with a lower-body injury and has been placed on the injured reserve. The 24-year-old has struggled mightily out of the gate in 2023-24, with one assist, 17 SOG, two PIMs, and a -2 plus/minus in nine games after putting up 14 goals and 35 points in 2022-23.
