The Predators have signed Colton Sissons to a three-year, $1.875M contract.

Sissons, 22, has appeared in 19 games for the Predators in 2015-16, notching a pair of points (1G /1A) and a 59 percent success rate in the face-off circle, best among all NHLers taking at least 100 draws. He has also served as the youngest captain in Milwaukee Admirals history this season, amassing 16 points (6G / 10A) in 33 games.

Hertl was a late scratch on Tuesday due to a lower-body injury.

There was no reports prior to puck drop that Hertl was even dealing with an injury, but when the official lineup came through, Herlt was listed as a scratch. He was expected to skate on the Sharks top line with Joe Thornton and Joe Pavelski, but that spot will now likely belong to Dainus Zubrus tonight. Consider Hertl day-to-day until more reports are released.

The Ducks have recalled Shea Theodore from San Diego (AHL).

Theodore, 20, was the 26th overall pick in 2013. The 6-foot-2, 186 lbs. blueliner has eight points (1G / 7A) in 13 games with San Diego this season. Theodore had 48 points (13G / 35A) in 43 games with Seattle (WHL) last season and 19 points (5G / 14A) in his first 22 career AHL games, so producing at the NHL level is the next step.

Hanifin will see more power-play time with Ryan Murphy (concussion) out.

Hanifin has been averaging just 0:51 PP TOI through the first 14 games of his NHL career, but with Murphy out indefinitely, Hanifin will start to eat up some of the 2:28 PP TOI that Murphy was seeing. Hanifin has just two assists in 14 games, but more power-play time should jump-start his production.
