Saros has been incredibly impressive as of late, erasing his slow start and giving up a 2.35 GAA, .926 SV% and three shutouts through 12 starts.

Forsberg practiced on Monday and took part in Tuesday’s morning skate but he stayed on late which suggests he may not return to the lineup quite yet. However, the Predators did not rule him out either so Forsberg’s status remains in question. Consider him a game-time decision.
