Saros is in the starter's crease for Nashville's morning skate.

Saros has been terrific lately and is expected to return to the crease on Thursday evening. The talented netminder has allowed two or fewer goals in each contest while riding a four-game winning streak, including saving 24 of 25 shots (.960 SV%) in a 4-1 win over the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday. The Predators enter action as -116 home favourites in a divisional matchup against the Minnesota Wild.

Chrona has been recalled from the San Jose Barracuda (AHL).

Mackenzie Blackwood suffered an undisclosed injury on Tuesday, forcing him to exit the Sharks 7-2 loss to the New Jersey Devils in the first period with an undisclosed injury. Blackwood has been placed on IR, prompting the Sharks to recall Chrona for the second time this season. Chrona has struggled immensely in limited action with the Sharks this season, posting a 9.50 GAA and .724 SV% in two appearances (0-1-0).

Saros led the Predators onto the ice for warmups.

Despite being the talk of some trade rumours, Juuse Saros will take over the Predators' crease for the third time in four games as he looks to extend Nashville's current win streak to six. The 28-year-old superstar is having one of the worst statistical seasons of his nine-year career, with his 23-21-7 record, 2.69 GAA and .919 SV%. He will face the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday, who will be looking for redemption after being embarrassed 6-3 by Washington just a night before on Monday.

Saros will start in Los Angeles on Thursday.

Saros will return to the Predators' crease after a rare backing up of Kevin Lankinen in Nashville's last game after he was the first goalie off the ice at an optional skate on Thursday. The 28-year-old has recently become the talk of trade speculation even though he is having one of the worst seasons of his nine-year career, with his 21-21-2 record, 3.02 GAA and .902 SV%. He will head to Los Angeles to take on the Kings on Thursday, who have won four straight and are third in the NHL in shots per game (33.5).

Annunen will start in Detroit on Thursday.

Annunen has struggled in limited action for the Avalanche this season but will start for the second time in the last four games on Thursday night. In three games this season (1-2-0), Annunen has a disastrous 4.08 GAA and .888 SV%. That said, the high-scoring Avalanche are still -127 road favourites against a Detroit Red Wings club that has outscored their opposition 9-3 in their last two games (2-0-0).
