Predators' Cody Hodgson: Benched Monday vs. Rangers

Hodgson was a healthy scratch for Monday's 5-3 win over the Rangers.

The writing was on the wall for Hodgson, who was averaging just nine minutes of ice time in his previous six games prior to the benching. He has just eight points in 35 games so far this season, so it's not hard to see why he drew the short straw. Bottom line, he's been a huge disappointment in Nashville and he doesn't offer any fantasy upside at the current time.
