Viktor Arvidsson News

Arvidsson missed Tuesday's game in Detroit but he's expected to play in the rematch on Thursday. Arvidsson has scored five goals with 13 assists (18 points) in 39 games this season and will likely skate on the top line with Ryan Johansen if he ends up playing.

Arvidsson exited Saturday's win over the Blackhawks with an upper-body injury and is questionable to play in Detroit. He travelled with the team but his status for tonight's game is unclear.

Arvidsson missed Wednesday's practice but head coach John Hynes expects him to be available for Thursday's game vs. the Blue Jackets. Arvidsson will look to bounce back after a down 2020 season, where he had just 15 goals and 13 assists (28 points) in 57 games.

Arvidsson has missed four weeks with a lower-body injury but is expected to play against the Bruins on Saturday. Arvidsson has six goals and nine assists (15 points) in 22 games this season.

Arvidsson was cross-checked by Robert Bortuzzo on Saturday night and will miss at least one month. With Arvidsson out long-term, Kyle Turris could move back into the top-6 and the Predators will likely recall a forward from Milwaukee (AHL).

Arvidsson missed Monday’s practice and skated on the “fifth line” in Tuesday’s morning skate, so don’t expect him to play Tuesday in Anaheim. Luckily for he Predators, Filip Forsberg is expected to draw back into the lineup for Arvidsson.

Arvidsson missed the morning skate but the Predators are hopeful that he will play on Thursday. Kevin Fiala skated on the top-line with Arvidsson taking the morning off, so expect him to remain there if Arvidsson is unavailable.

Arvidsson is expected to play Thursday after missing 22 games with a broken thumb he suffered on November 10th. Arvidsson has 13 points (8G / 5A) in 13 games this season.

Arvidsson has been out since November 10th with a broken thumb but is expected to play vs. the Stars. Arvidsson was playing very well before getting hurt, registering eight goals on 34 shots (23.5 SH%) with five assists (13 points) in 13 games. He will skate with Ryan Johansen and Calle Jarnkrok on the top line.

Arvidsson missed three games with a lower-body injury before returning last Saturday, when he suffered a broken thumb. Arvidsson will be out until at least late-December, which means Kevin Fiala and Colton Sissons will continue to see expanded roles. Top prospects Elli Tolvanen could be called up to fill-in for Arvidsson.

Arvidsson was activated from IR with a lower-body injury for Saturday’s game, but was forced to leave the game with an upper-body injury. Arvidsson was hurt while crashing into the boards and will miss at least the next three games. With Arvidsson back out, Kevin Fiala will likely move back to the top line.

Arvidsson has missed the last three games but is set to return on Saturday afternoon after being activated from IR. Arvidsson has picked up 12 points (8G / 4A) in 12 games this season and will likely reclaim his spot on the top line today.

Arvidsson was placed on IR on Monday, but was on the ice for Tuesday’s practice and Wednesday’s morning skate but is not expected to play in Colorado. It’s a good sign that Arvidsson was on the ice for two straight days, so there’s a chance that he plays Saturday in Dallas.

Arvidsson has missed the last two games and the Predators placed him on IR on Monday morning. Arvidsson’s move to IR means that he will miss at least Wednesday’s game in Colorado, but he is eligible to return in Dallas on Saturday.
