The Nashville Predators placed forward Paul Gaustad on injured reserve Monday. The faceoff ace suffered an upper body injury March 12 against the Dallas Stars and has yet to return.
Gaustad now joins forwards Patric Hornqvist and Colin Wilson who both have upper body injuries as well.
After Sergei Kostitsyn gave up on play Sunday night in Edmonton that led to a goal, it appears he will be scratched for the Predators' next game in Columbus, according to TSN insider Bob McKenzie. Chris Mueller, who was recalled last week from the Admirals, will be in battle for a lineup spot against Zack Boychuk. More will come later on.

Nashville Predators forward Sergei Kostitsyn took the most inopportune time to head to the bench for a line change during Sunday's game, and his team paid for it as the Edmonton Oilers scored a short-handed goal that made the difference in the game.
During a Predators power play in the third period, Kostitsyn mishandled a pass and allowed the puck to travel outside the blue...

According to Milwaukee Admirals winger Michael Liambas (via Twitter), the Nashville Predators have recalled Taylor Beck.
Beck leads all Admirals in scoring with 41 points in 50 games.
The Niagra Falls, Ontario, native was a third round draft pick of the Predators in 2009. If he suits up Tuesday against the Columbus Blue Jackets, it will be his NHL debut.

Nashville's Sergei Kostitsyn has some explaining to do. After failing to handle a pass, Kostitsyn abandoned the play, allowing Sam Gagner of the Edmonton Oilers to carry the puck in and dish it to Lennart Petrell who was able to tally a relatively easy shorthanded goal. Chalk this up as one of the most baffling, lazy plays we've seen so far in 2013. There are...

We’ve seen Jason Arnott lag on the backcheck. We’ve seen Martin Erat make turnover after turnover inside the attacking zone. We’ve even seen Niclas Bergfors released for not playing defense.
But we’ve never seen a Nashville Predator quit in the middle of a play.

The Nashville Predators return to the United States with nothing positive coming out of their Western Canadian road trip. They lost their third in-a-row to the Edmonton Oilers, 3-2 on St. Patrick's Day. “Instead of finding ways to win games, we are finding way to lose them. It isn’t good enough,” said goal scorer Roman Josi.
Nashville can’t seem to capitalize on their...

The Predators need to forget everything that ever happened on this road trip. They simply have not looked like a team that cares over the last 5 games. They went 1-4, capped off by tonight's 4-3 loss to the Coumblus Blue Jackets. The Preds came out with surprising enthusiasm and were all over the home team in the...

It's rough days for the Nashville Predators as they are slowly distancing themselves from the playoff race. They went 0-3 in the West coast, with Rinne getting chased twice. The Preds actually managed to score 9 goals in the three game trip, (0.8 more goals/game than their season average), but they let allowed 16 goals against, which, of course, just isn't good.

After a inexplicable series of events Sunday night against Edmonton to drop the game 3-2 and stretch their losing streak to 3 games, the Predators are now mired in a 4-9-2 slump. This sets up a strangely familiar and very important match-up with Central Division foe Columbus on Tuesday night at Nationwide Arena.
