Shayne Gostisbehere is the team's second leading scorer with 29 points in 48 games.

The Nashville Predators also announced that one of their defensemen will miss an extended period of time. Alexandre Carrier suffered an upper-body injury Tuesday in a fight with Logan Stanley. He will also miss four to six weeks.
In 40 games this season, he has eight points.
