Matt Duchene doubtful for Predators

The winger Duchene can miss the rest of the regular season as it is listed as week-to-week by Nashville Matt Duchene.

Matt was injured by his teammate Dante Fabbro on Sunday against Maple Leafs when the shot of Fabbro ended up in Duchene’s hand, and he left the game and did not return.

The HC of the franchise Jon Hynes said after the match that there is no exact return date for Duchene as there are only 10 games left for them until the end of the regular season.

Nashville Predators is fighting with Winnipeg Jets and Calgary Flames for the last wild-card playoff spot in the Western Conference. Predators are 5 points behind their rival but with 2 games in hand.

“Obviously, we lose [Matt] in the 2^nd period, so that hurts a lot.” Nashville forward Cody Glass said after the loss against Toronto.

Matt Duchene (32) scored 22 goals in 71 matches this season. Last season he finished with 43 goals which was his highest career achievement.
