After today's Nashville Predators practice, beat writer Josh Cooper has provided fans a comprehensive injury report this afternoon. In the good news department, Josh reports that Marcel Goc took part in contact drills today, and will make the four game road trip. Ryan Suter will also "probably" go on the trip. Here's the rest of the walking wounded, per Josh:

UPDATEWilly Daunic provided a further update Tuesday morning indicating that Suter & Erat will not make the trip out West after all.

  • Trotz said defen­se­man Ryan Suter (lower-body) was "get­ting bet­ter," and will "pro­bably" make the team's trip.
  • Fran­cis Boui­llon (upper-body) ska­ted during non-contact drills and is day-to-day.
  • For­ward Jor­din Too­too (upper-body) prac­ti­ced and is also day-to-day.
  • For­ward Mar­tin Erat (upper-body) did not prac­tice and is day-to-day.
  • Cen­ter David Leg­wand did not prac­tice. The team said Leg­wand took a "main­te­nance day."
  • Cen­ter Matthew Lom­bardi (con­cus­sion) is still out inde­fi­ni­tely and will be re-evaluated next Tues­day. He is not par­ti­ci­pa­ting in any phy­si­cal activity.

That's quite a list, and its also very discouraging news on Lombardi - just last week, Trotz said he'd be reevaluated today. Anyway, considering Linus Klasen was just sent down, I'd expect most of those players (excluding Lombardi and Suter) in the lineup come Wednesday against Phoenix. If Goc is ready to play, look for Nick Spaling to be returned to Milwaukee.
