While Filip Forsberg was listed as day-to-day after being injured in Saturday morning’s game, Philip Tomasino was recalled from the Milwaukee Admirals this morning; it’s safe to assume he will be replacing Forsberg at least for tonight.
The Arizona Coyotes, meanwhile, are having a rough season. At least one player (Jakob Chychrun) sat out their most recent game for “trade-related reasons”, and it’s safe to assume they’ll be selling at or before the trade deadline. That doesn’t mean the players still on the team can’t cause the Preds some problems, though.
Clayton Keller and Nick Schmaltz have put together strong seasons on a very weak team; Schmaltz, who missed sixteen games, is still second on the Coyotes in points with 34, and is one of only three players to come even close to breaking even in expected goal share.
