The Nashville Predators make some roster noise moving into Tuesday night’s tilt against the Ottawa Senators. They have recalled goaltender Juuse Saros and winger Pontus Aberg to the NHL level while assigning goaltender Marek Mazanec and winger Kevin Fiala to the team’s AHL affiliate Milwaukee Admirals.
The moves represent a relatively straight forward player swap at both the backup goaltender and third-line winger positions. The Nashville Predators are hoping the changes may help spark a turnaround to a season that has them sitting near the bottom of the NHL standings with a 3-5-3 record.
