Nashville Predators put Roman Josi, Colin Wilson on IR

The Nashville Predators placed defenseman Roman Josi and forward Colin Wilson on injured reserve Saturday.

Josi sustained an upper-body injury in the first period of Thursday night's 2-1 win over the Boston Bruins.

Josi has played in all 42 games for the Predators this season, earning 22 points (five goals, 17 assists). He leads the team and ranks ninth in the NHL in average time on ice per game (25:14), and is tied for fourth among league defensemen in shots with 124.

Wilson, who hasn't played since Jan. 6, missed three games because of a lower-body injury.

Wilson has six goals and 11 assists in 38 games this season. He is tied for second on the team with three power-play goals.

The Predators also recalled defenseman Petter Granberg from Milwaukee of the American Hockey League and assigned forward Pontus Aberg to the Admirals.
