David Legwand expected to return to the #Preds lineup tonight.
Legwand gets back into the lineup after missing a few games. The former 2nd overall pick has five goals and 14 points over his first 14 games. When he does draw back in he likely knocks Craig Smith to a checking line.
“I hope to get back in tomorrow. Guys are getting wins, and that’s what counts here, hopefully we can keep it going tomorrow,” Legwand said. “It’s one of those things that could have taken a lot longer than it did, but it’s healed up and ready to go.”
Legwand appears close to returning to the lineup. When he does draw back in he likely knocks Craig Smith to a checking line.
This is important for Nashville because David Legwand (upper body) will be out. Trotz said Legwand also will most likely be out this weekend for Nashville’s 1,000th game.
Legwand suffered a nasty, blind-side hit last night at the hands of Dustin Brown. His five goals and 14 points currently leads the Preds which makes this injury even tougher to swallow.
