Nick Bonino scored on Thursday for just the second time in 11 games, leaving him seven goals shy of 100 for his career. Colton Sissons, who missed the loss to Philadelphia with a lower-body injury, was placed on injured reserve on Friday. The 25-year-old was kept off the scoresheet in each of his last three contests after registering three goals and three assists during a four-game point streak.

David Krejci’s goal in Thursday’s 3-1 win over Anaheim was his third in four games and represented his 600th point in the NHL. The 32-year-old Czech is riding an eight-game point streak during which he has collected five tallies and six assists. David Backes notched his 300th career assist in the triumph over the Ducks and defenseman Torey Krug recorded his 200th while David Pastrnak scored a goal and set up two others, giving him five tallies and 14 assists over his last 14 contests.

The loss to Philadelphia was the Predators’ first in regulation against an Eastern Conference team this season (10-1-1).
