Dumba (upper-body) is out vs. Nashville on Thursday.

Dumba has already missed eight games this season due to injuries and being a healthy scratch.

Dumba has one point (0G / 1A) and is averaging 15:33 time-on-ice, his lowest total since his rookie season. Lian Bichsel will draw into the lineup for his NHL debut on Thursday, replacing Dumba.
