Subban placed on IR, will miss at least 3 games
The Nashville Predators have placed defenseman P.K. Subban on injured reserve, the team announced Thursday.
The star blue-liner was already ruled out for Thursday night's clash with the Arizona Coyotes after Predators head coach Peter Laviolette said Subban was day to day with an upper-body injury, according to The Athletic's Adam Vingan.
Subban left Tuesday's loss to the San Jose Sharks after playing just over seven minutes and didn't return.
Placing the 29-year-old on injured reserve means he will miss Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Kings and Monday's contest versus the Tampa Bay Lightning.
If healthy, Subban would be eligible to return Wednesday night against the St. Louis Blues.
The Predators have activated defenseman Dan Hamhuis off IR in a corresponding move.
