The Nashville Predators may have claimed two points on the road in Thursday’s 5-2 win over the Montreal Canadiens, but it appears to have come at the cost of two of their players.
Nashville Predators forward Mavrik Bourque and defenseman William Trudeau both suffered upper-body injuries during Thursday's 5-2 victory over the Montreal Canadiens. The team confirmed during the contest that neither player would return. Bourque did not take a shift in the third period, while Trudeau missed the entirety of the second and third periods.
The specific severity and nature of both injuries remain unclear. Bourque, acquired from the Dallas Stars during the offseason, had one assist through Nashville's first three games. Trudeau, who was claimed off waivers from the New York Rangers prior to the season, was appearing in just his third career NHL game.
