Injuries Continue To Pile Up For Nashville Predators

Just days ago the Nashville Predators announced that they would be without Ryan Ellis who is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a upper-body inury and Luke Kunin with a lower body injury that will keep him out 2-5 weeks.

Today the club announced that forward Matt Duchene will now miss 3-5 weeks with what is being described as a lower body injury.

The Predators currently sit sixth in the Discover Central division and have lost two games in a row. This season has been anything but smooth for the Predators and you have to wonder if pretty soon they are going to throw in the towel and start re-tooling for next year.

We reported weeks ago that the Nashville Predators were taking calls on all but three players perhaps now with injuries compounding and their playoff hopes quickly fading those phone calls will now turn into deals being made. Keep an eye out.
