A final trip to the desert for the Nashville Predators comes tonight against the Arizona Coyotes (7 p.m. CT).
The visitors saw a third-period lead slip away in a Nov. 3 contest at Gila River Arena. The Coyotes ultimately prevailed in a shootout by a 3-2 final score. More recently, Nashville dropped the first part of their two-game trip to the Dallas Stars on Thursday and will seek a rebound effort versus a Coyotes team that's lost six straight.
Nashville held a full practice on Friday, but did not skate on Saturday morning. Ryan Ellis (Injured Reserve; upper-body) and Colton Sissons (IR; upper-body) participated in full during Friday's session and appear to be nearing a return.
Below is the lineup the Predators used on Thursday against the Stars:
