Alexandre Carrier - Playing Tuesday Carrier (upper body) will return to action against the Bruins on Tuesday, Alex Daugherty of The Tennessean reports.

Impact Carrier returns following a three-game stint on the sidelines due to his upper-body issue. Prior to getting hurt, the blueliner was stuck in both a 22-game goal drought in addition to a nine-game pointless streak. As such, fantasy players probably shouldn't be banking on Carrier offering much in the way of fantasy value moving forward.

Kevin Lankinen - Solid not good enough Lankinen made 35 saves Saturday in a 7-4 loss to Colorado. He allowed six goals.

Impact The Preds came out hard and fast, and the Avs did not. The squad forced Avs starter Alexandar Georgiev out of the game just 57 seconds into the second, and Lankinen looked incredibly confident . But then the Avs scored the final five goals of the game. Lankinen was solid, but doesn't get a lot of playing time behind Juuse Saros, who dominates the crease. However, he may get another game or two before the end of the season as the team rests Saros for Cup action.

Impact Nyquist extended his point streak to eight games (12 points; five goals, seven assists). He continues to pad his career point mark. Nyquist has 68 points, including 46 assists, in 74 games. Not bad for a 34-year-old. Don't expect him to replicate that next season -- there are too many factors against him. But right now, hot is hot.
