Nashville Predators defenseman Alexandre Carrier (upper body) is considered week-to-week. The 28-year-old was injured on Saturday versus Ottawa and didn't participate in Monday's practice session. Averaging over 20 minutes of ice time per game, Carrier has contributed one goal and six assists in 28 games this season. He's second on the team with 49 blocks and has delivered 31 hits. Marc Del Gaizo is expected to replace Carrier in the lineup on Tuesday against Calgary. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect much from Del Gaizo, as his offensive contributions have been limited to three assists. In 16 appearances, he's also tallied 23 blocks and 23 hits.
Nashville Predators defenseman Alexandre Carrier (undisclosed) is considered a game-time decision for Wednesday's clash with the Kings. He was limited to only eight minutes of action against Ottawa on Monday due to an unspecified ailment, but it looks like Carrier has a chance to play on Wednesday versus Los Angeles. The 27-year-old has notched 14 points (four goals, 10 assists) in 46 appearances this season while also making a mark on the defensive end with 92 blocks.
Nashville Predators defenseman Alexandre Carrier (upper body) is considered week-to-week after he was injured in Saturday's game against Ottawa. The 26-year-old will miss his third game of the season Monday versus St. Louis, and it looks like it will take a while before he's healthy again. Carrier does very little offensively, with him sitting on one point in 23 games, but he has brought a physical presence to the lineup and boasts 30 hits for the campaign with 27 blocks. With Jeremy Lauzon (upper body) also having gone down with an injury at the weekend, the Predators have called up Kevin Gravel and Roland McKeown from the AHL, and both players are set to enter the lineup Monday.
