Sullivan latest to join injury list

One after another, the Predators' key players are falling victim to injury.

Left wing Steve Sullivan joined the list in Thursday's 4-1 win over Los Angeles, as he suffered a strained groin in the first period and didn't return to the contest. Predators Coach Barry Trotz said he didn't believe the injury was too serious, but called Sullivan doubtful for Saturday's game against San Jose.

The Predators plan to recall forward Pat Leahy for the game against the Sharks. In 23 games for Milwaukee of the American Hockey League, Leahy has posted 10 points (six goals, four assists), 18 penalty minutes and a minus nine rating.

Nashville played Thursday's game without goalie Tomas Vokoun (thumb), center Jason Arnott (knee), center David Legwand (hand) and right wing Scottie Upshall (groin).

In addition, back-up goalie Michael Leighton is suffering from the flu.

Trotz had hoped Legwand would be ready for Saturday's game, but now said Legwand has only an outside chance of returning for that contest.
