With four out of a possible six points collected in California, the Nashville Predators are set to conclude their four-game trip tonight in Columbus against the Blue Jackets.
After falling to San Jose on Wednesday, Nashville posted back-to-back wins over Anaheim and Los Angeles on Friday and Saturday for wins six and seven on the season.
Then on Sunday, Preds GM David Poile swung a deal to acquire center Kyle Turris as part of a three-team trade with Ottawa and Colorado. Next, Turris signed a six-year, $36 million contract with the Predators, and although it is unlikely Turris will be available to play tonight due to the immigration process, he hopes to make his debut on Saturday night in Nashville.
"I'm not sure how long the immigration process is going to take," Turris said via conference call on Monday. "Depending on how it goes, but I definitely will be in Nashville by the middle of this week, for sure. I, hopefully, will be getting a few practices in before the game on Saturday.
