Goalie Start
Nedeljkovic is expected to start Saturday vs. the Canadiens.

Vlasic has missed the last six games while on the COVID-19 reserve list but should be back in the lineup on Saturday. With Vlasic back, Jaycob Megna was reassigned to the AHL.
Eklund was a healthy scratch in Boston on Sunday but will be back in the lineup in Nashville. Eklund, who has three assists in his first four NHL games, will skate on a line with Tomas Hertl and Kevin Labanc.
Kurashev will be replaced in the lineup by Dylan Strome. According to Jeremy Colliton he is scratching Kurashev because "he was one of our best forwards in camp and preseason. And we need him to get back to that level. Sometimes coming out is what you need to get refocused and back to the level you can play at.”
