Ryan Ellis, James Neal and Colton Sissons all missed Nashville Predators practice at Centennial Sportsplex on Saturday.
All three players were absent for portions or all of Friday's 5-1 win versus the Winnipeg Jets with upper-body injuries. Anthony Bitetto logged his second second game of the season while filling in for Ellis. Sissons left at 12:56 of the second period after being boarded by Brandon Tanev; the Jets forward was assessed a major penalty on the play. Neal left the ice following the conclusion of the second period and did not return. The winger recorded a goal in 12:13 of time on ice.
