Kiprusoff expected to be back for Flames
Miikka Kiprusoff is expected to return to the crease as the Calgary Flames take on the Nashville Predators in a Saturday matinee.

Kiprusoff, who the Flames are hoping to give a lighter workload to this season, watched his club gave up a goal with 1.4 seconds left in overtime to fall 3-2 to the New York Rangers on Thursday.

The Predators, meanwhile, will have the services of defenseman Shea Weber against Calgary. Weber was fined $2,500, but not suspended, by NHL Vice-president of Player Safety Brendan Shanahan for an illegal hit on Jannik Hansen of the Vancouver Canucks.

Here are the projected lineups:

Calgary Flames

Alex Tanguay – David Moss – Jarome Iginla
Curtis Glencross – Olli Jokinen – Lee Stempniak
Niklas Hagman – Brendan Morrison – Rene Bourque
Tom Kostopoulos – Matt Stajan – Tim Jackman

Jay Bouwmeester – Chris Butler
Mark Giordano – Scott Hannan
Cory Sarich – Derek Smith

Miikka Kiprusoff
Henrik Karlsson

Nashville Predators

Colin Wilson – David Legwand – Matt Halischuk
Sergei Kostitsyn – Nick Spaling – Craig Smith
Jordin Tootoo – Jerred Smithson – Brian McGrattan
Patric Hornqvist – Blake Geoffrion – Niclas Bergfors

Ryan Suter – Shea Weber
Jonathon Blum – Kevin Klein
Jack Hillen – Teemu Laakso

Pekka Rinne
Anders Lindback
