Predators' Michael McCarron: Taken off injured reserve
McCarron (upper body) was removed from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's matchup with Montreal, per the NHL media site.
McCarron looks poised to step into the lineup for the first time since Nov. 20 versus the Kraken, a stretch of six games on the shelf due to his upper-body issue. The 29-year-old forward has notched two goals, two assists and 35 hits while averaging 12:24 of ice time in 18 contests. Mark Jankowski could find himself relegated to the press box since McCarron is now healthy.

Predators' Michael McCarron: Upgraded to day-to-day
McCarron (upper body) is considered day-to-day and could be an option during the Preds' three-game road trip, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports Tuesday.
McCarron has already been out of action since Nov. 20 due to his upper-body issue, so he can be removed from injured reserve as soon as medically cleared. Considering the bottom-six forward has managed just four points in 18 games, his eventual return is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy players, though he does offer some physicality in banger formats.

Predators' Michael McCarron: Long-range tip-in goal
McCarron scored a goal, added two hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Oilers.
McCarron tipped in a goal from the high slot to open the scoring at 8:22 of the first period. The tally ended his six-game point drought, a span which included him sitting out twice as a healthy scratch. The 29-year-old forward has two goals, one assist, 12 shots on net, 30 hits, 23 PIM and a minus-9 rating through 15 appearances this season. He's a lock for bottom-six minutes when in the lineup, and that's unlikely to lead to enough offense to help fantasy managers.

Predators' Michael McCarron: Scores in Tuesday's loss
McCarron scored a goal and went minus-4 in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Kraken.
McCarron netted his first goal of the campaign, but the Predators' fourth line was caved in by the Kraken's offense. The 29-year-old has added three shots on net, two hits, two blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over three games this season. He'll likely rack up plenty of hits and PIM, but McCarron's career high in points came last year (22 in 70 regular-season games), and he doesn't have a lot of upside in that area.

McCarron notched a pair of helpers in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to Anaheim.

Predators' Michael McCarron: Scores sixth goal of 2023-24
McCarron found the back of the net in a 6-3 loss to Calgary on Thursday.
McCarron's marker came early in the third period to narrow the Flames' lead to 5-3, but the Predators weren't able to turn that into a rally. It was his sixth goal and ninth point in 29 outings this season. McCarron serves as a fourth-line center, so his offensive contributions come sporadically. Fantasy managers should note his significant contributions in PIM and hits, though -- the 28-year-old has 52 and 48, respectively.

Predators' Michael McCarron: Pots fifth goal
McCarron scored the opening goal and added four PIM, three blocked shots, one hit, one shot on net and a minus-1 rating in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.
The veteran checking-line center earned his fifth goal of the season the hard way. McCarron got knocked down in front of the Dallas net early in the second period, only for Ryan McDonagh's slapshot to hit him in the back of the helmet and trickle across the goal line. McCarron is two tallies short of tying his career high of seven, but he has a meager eight points in 24 games.

McCarron would also pick up three hits and a five-minute fighting major in the Nashville win. The 28-year-old forward now has five points (three goals, two assists) along with 20 hits on the campaign while skating on the fourth line.
