The Predators have recalled Cole Smith from Milwaukee (AHL).

Nick Cousins is week-to-week with a lower-body injury, so Smith comes up from the AHL and should play in the bottom-6 on Tuesday. Smith has spent most of the season in the AHL, posting 10 goals and 12 assists (22 points) in 33 games with Milwaukee.

Teravainen (lower-body) will be a game-time decision on Monday.

The Hurricanes were hoping that the All-Star break would help Teravainen's lower-body injury but he remains questionable for Monday's game in Toronto. With Jesperi Kotkaniemi landing in COVID-19 protocol on Sunday, the Hurricanes may have to call someone up or dress seven defensemen if Teravainen can't play.

The Wild have signed Jordan Greenway to a three-year contract extension worth $9.0 million ($3.0M AAV).

Greenway's offensive numbers have fallen off a little bit this season after posting a career-high 32 points (6G / 26A) in 56 games last season. So far, he has 13 points (4G / 9A) in 33 games while adding 82 hits and 47 shots on goal. Greenway was set to become an RFA at the end of the season.
