Juuse Saros Iffy For Thursday's Season Opener
1 month agoNashville Predators goaltender Juuse Saros (lower body) is in danger of missing Thursday's season opener against the Dallas Stars. He's battling a lower-body injury and is currently considered day-to-day. Saros has been among the NHL's top goalies for several years, and Nashville is weaker in every game without him. Career backup Scott Wedgewood will be in line for a start on Thursday if Saros can't go, while Matt Murray has been summoned from the AHL to work as the backup. Wedgewood is fresh off a stint with the Stars, having posted a 53-28-16 record with the team across three seasons. He has won one of four career starts against them.
