Arvidsson, 22, scored one goal in three games with the Predators after making the team out of training camp, but he will head back to the AHL for a little more seasoning. He had 22 goals and 33 assists (55 points) in 70 games with Milwaukee last season.

Zacha, 18, was the sixth overall pick in this summer’s draft, but was unable to crack the Devils opening night roster. Zacha heads back to the OHL, where he had 16 goals and 18 assists (34 points) in 37 games a season ago.



Arvidsson did not have a point in six games during his recall. He heads back to the minors with the Predators off until Saturday.


It seems as if the Ducks will rest some of their key defensemen down the stretch. First it was Cam Fowler, then James Wisniewski and this afternoon it will be Lindholm. He will be replaced by Wisniewski who sat on Thursday. Expect him to be back in the lineup on Sunday.

Arvidsson, 21, currently leads the Admirals, is tied for the AHL rookie lead, and tied for 10th among all AHL skaters with 51 points (20G / 31A) while playing in all 63 of the team’s games this season.

Zadorov was a healthy scratch in the last four games, but will be back in the lineup tonight in Florida. He has 13 points (3G / 10A) in 42 games this season. He will be a good player in this league, but the Sabres clearly think he has some growing up to do.

Zadorov will be a healthy scratch for the fourth straight game because of some disciplinary reasons. He likely would be back in the lineup tonight if Mike Weber wasn’t able to go, but he is in.

Zadorov will be a healthy scratch for the second straight game. Coach Ted Nolan said he won’t play because of “team reasons”. Mark Pysyk is expected to be in the lineup for Zadorov.

Lindholm missed Wednesday’s game against the Lightning, but said that he needed some rest. He will be back in the lineup tonight in Calgary. Lindholm will be paired with Francois Beauchemin. He has 25 points (5G / 20A) and a plus-14 rating in 55 games this season.

Lindholm was listed as a game-time decision, but will miss his second game in the last four. With Lindholm and Sami Vatanen both out, Josh Manson and Eric Brewer will enter the lineup.

Lindholm, who has been in the lineup for the last two games, apparently tweaked his ankle again and will be a game-time decision tonight. He was not on the ice for the morning skate, so his status is in question. This would be a tough loss for the Ducks, who just received the news that Sami Vatanen will miss 4-6 weeks.

Lindholm missed Tuesday’s game with a lower-body injury, but he is expected to be back in the lineup tonight in Carolina. With Lindholm back, Eric Brewer is expected to take a seat in the press box. Lindholm has four assists in his last seven games.

Lindholm missed Tuesday’s game with a lower-body injury, but his availability this morning is a good sign that he should be available for Thursday’s game. The Ducks might not provide an update until they see how he gets through Thursday’s morning skate.

Lindholm was in the morning skate, but left early. His early departure suggests that Lindholm will not be in the lineup tonight. With Lindholm likely sidelined, Clayton Stoner should be back in the lineup tonight.

Lindholm suffered a lower-body injury in Sunday’s game vs. the Lightning. He said that he will try to play on Tuesday and participating in the morning skate is a positive sign that he will play. Monitor his status after the morning skate.

Lindholm missed practice on Monday and is listed as day-to-day. Lindholm’s status for Tuesday’s game remains up in the air. Monitor his status during Tuesday’s morning skate.
