Starting tonight, the Predators and Senators will play their two-game season series over the next six days.
Nashville (19-10-1) has dropped their last two games, both on the road in Western Canada. Kyle Turris (Injured Reserve) was on the ice for the practice on Monday wearing a non-contact sweater, while Austin Watson and Ryan Ellis missed the session.

The Predators held an optional morning skate on Tueday. Below is a Preds projected lineup based on Monday's practice:
