Fabbro has two goals, three assists, 19 SOG, six PIMs, and a +4 plus/minus in 16 games played this season but will be the odd man out of the Predators' lineup Wednesday vs. Calgary. The 25-year-old defenseman will be replaced by Ryan McDonagh (injury) in Nashville's lineup.
A healthy scratch on Tuesday's opening night game against the Lightning, Fabbro will draw back into the lineup on Thursday in place of Luke Schenn (lower-body). Fabbro is expected to skate alongside Roman Josi on the Preds' top pair at 5v5. The 25-year-old defenseman tallied just two goals and nine assists in 79 games with the Predators last season.
Fabbro had two goals, nine assists, 50 PIMs, 101 SOG, and a -4 plus/minus through 79 games with Nashville in 2022-23 but will be a healthy scratch for their first game of the season vs. Tampa Bay. The 25-year-old defenseman is entering his sixth NHL season and should find himself in the Predators' lineup more often than not this season.
Fabbro has a goal, seven assists, 70 SOG, 36 PIMs and a +3 plus/minus through 56 games played and has signed a one-year, $2.5 million extension with Nashville. The 24-year-old has 12 goals, 56 points and 121 PIMs through 230 career NHL games across five seasons.
Fabbro will head to the press box for the second time this season as a healthy scratch as the Predators take on the Canadiens Tuesday. The 24-year-old has one goal, six assists, 18 PIMs and 49 SOG through 34 games prior to the scratching.
Fabbro missed Sunday's game in Pittsburgh but will replace Matt Benning in the lineup on Tuesday. Fabbro will likely be back on the top pair with Roman Josi and comes in with seven assists in his last 16 games.
Fabbro missed six games with an upper-body injury but is set to play Tuesday vs. the Canucks. Fabbro re-enters the lineup with one goal and 10 assists (11 points) in 35 games this season.
Fabbro has been out since April 6th but could be back in the lineup Wednesday in Columbus. Fabbro scored two goals and nine assists (11 points) in 38 games this season. He will likely replace Alexandre Carrier if he can play.
Fabbro was forced to leave Tuesday's game after playing just 4:00 TOI and did not return. With Fabbro out, the Predators will likely have to turn to their taxi squad for a No.6 defenseman.
Fabbro was suspended for two games for elbowing Brock McGinn o the Hurricanes but is set to return to the lineup on Monday. Fabbro, who has two goals and seven assists (nine points) in 26 games this season, will most likely skate in the top-4 with Ben Harpur.
This is another huge blow to the Predators' blueline, who will now be without three of their top-4 defensemen on Thursday. Fabbro will miss Thursday and Saturday's games before being eligible to return Monday in Tampa Bay.
