As we reported earlier, for the second time in five days, the Nashville Predators officially recalled Andreas Thuresson as they prepare to head out for Anaheim today.
Thurresson looked good in his NHL debut on Saturday and is being added to the roster to add depth as Colin Wilson is not traveling with the team to the West coast due to re-aggravation of his groin injury.
Here is the full Press Release from the Predators...
