Predators defenseman Roman Josi left tonight's game with an upper body injury and did not return. Josi was the victim of a controversial hit from Avalanche forward Steve Downie. Downie received a two minute charging penalty on the play.

Josi scored five goals with 15 assists (18 points) in 48 games for Nashville last season. He just signed a seven year contract extension with the Preds this offseason. He is a key part of their blueline, so they can not afford to lose him for an extended period of time. Expect an update tomorrow.

It sounds like defenseman Roman Josi will start the season in Milwaukee. Josi did not skate with the team again as he nursed his “upper body” injury. But a move to Milwaukee would most likely only be temporary. “In the past we’ve had players gotten injured like Roman has, and gone down, got their game going and they were fine,” Trotz said.

Josi was expected to challenge for a roster spot this preseason but could start the year in the AHL. Ryan Ellis and Mattias Ekholm certainly have a leg-up on him as long as he remains on the shelf.
