Gravel has an assist, 12 SOG, two PIMs and a -6 plus/minus through 14 games with the Predators but has been reassigned to Milwaukee (AHL) Monday. He returns to the minors, where he had a goal, 10 assists, 16 PIMs and a +7 plus/minus through 39 games prior to his last promotion.

Ratcliffe was a second-round pick in 2017 but has yet to make an impact at the NHL level. The 6-foot-6, 200 lbs winger has appeared in just 10 NHL games in five years, spending all of 2023 in the AHL so far. In 26 games with Lehigh Valley, Ratcliffe has just four points (2G / 2A). He'll likely report to Milwaukee (AHL).

Foote was the No.14 overall pick in 2017 and has served as a No.6/7 defenseman for the Lightning for the last three seasons. In total, he's scored just four goals with 11 assists (15 points) in 117 NHL games. Foote could see more regular playing time in Nashville, especially if they continue to sell off pieces.

Sherwood has 22 goals, 38 points, 22 PIMs and a +9 plus/minus through 42 games with the Milwaukee Admirals (AHL) and has been recalled to Nashville on Thursday. Sherwood scored the very first goal of the 2022-23 NHL season and has two points and 11 PIMs through five previous games with the Predators this season.

The 27-year-old has been solid all season, as shown by his 20-16-5 record, 2.82 GAA and .916 SV%.

He takes on the Arizona Coyotes, who are in the midst of trading star defenseman Jakob Chychrun and have lost their last two games after a 6-5 loss to St. Louis last game.
