"What happens when you lose your leading scorer who averages more than a point per game? Who also plays on your top penalty-kill and power-play units and who came into Tuesday night's game averaging 20:27?

With 13:17 left in the first period of Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Los Angeles Kings, Dustin Brown made a blindside open-ice check on Predators forward David Legwand. The Predators' top scorer left the game with an upper-body injury. Predators Coach Barry Trotz said Legwand won't play today at Anaheim."
