Status report
Coyotes coach Andre Tourigny said that McBain is day to day and the forward will not play. Kerfoot will move to center in McBain’s absence and Boyd will come into the lineup and play left wing on that line. … Predators coach Andrew Brunette said Glass will be a game-time decision. Glass has missed the past eight games because of a lower-body injury. Brunette also said McDonagh, who has missed the past three games because of a lower body injury, is still day to day but the defenseman could be close to returning.
