    Nashville has announced that Borowiecki (undisclosed) is resting at home after being released from the hospital Saturday night.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Taken off ice on stretcher

    Borowiecki was taken off the ice on a stretcher during Saturday's game against Philadelphia, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports.

    Borowiecki suffered the injury when Philadelphia's Morgan Frost hit him into the boards while Borowiecki was in an awkward position. There was no penalty called, it was a routine situation that unfortunately went wrong. The Predators reported that Borowiecki was taken to the hospital. He was conscious with movement in all his extremities.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Returns to lineup Thursday

    Borowiecki (illness) will return to the Nashville lineup Thursday, according to Emma Lingan of the Predators' official site.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Out of action Tuesday

    Borowiecki (illness) won't play Tuesday versus the Kings.

    Borowiecki is on the fringe of the gameday roster anyway, so this won't impact most fantasy teams. The 33-year-old will look to be healthy again for Thursday's game in Columbus.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Playing in early game

    Borowiecki (undisclosed) will be in the lineup for the first game against the Panthers on Monday.

    Borowiecki was sidelined for the final two matches of the playoffs last season due to his undisclosed injury but appears not to have suffered a long-term injury. For the second consecutive season, the Ottawa native failed to score a goal last season with his most recent tally coming back during the 2019-20 campaign when he was with the Senators.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Out again versus Avs

    Borowiecki (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup against Colorado on Monday, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Borowiecki will be on the shelf for his second straight contest due to his undisclosed injury. Considering the blueliner has just one point in his last 14 contests and averaged just 13:54 of ice time over that stretch, his absence is unlikely to play a significant impact in fantasy contests. Even if he is cleared to play, assuming Game 5 is needed, Borowiecki will be a relative non-factor in terms of fantasy value.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Sidelined with undisclosed issue

    Borowiecki (undisclosed) is considered day-to-day and won't play in Saturday's Game 3 against the Avalanche.

    With Borowiecki on the shelf, Matt Benning will draw into the lineup Saturday. Borowiecki will be reevaluated ahead of Monday's Game 4 versus Colorado.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Back at it

    Borowiecki (upper body) will return to the lineup for Saturday's game versus Chicago, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Borowiecki will slot into a bottom-pairing role following his one-game absence. He's picked up three helpers through 49 contests this season.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Out with upper-body injury

    Borowiecki (upper body) won't play Thursday versus the Oilers and is considered day-to-day.

    Borowiecki has missed various stretches of time due to injuries from his heavy playing style. With the 32-year-old out, Matt Benning or Jeremy Davies are most likely to enter the lineup Thursday.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Earns assist in return

    Borowiecki picked up an assist, three shots on goal, two hits and 10 PIM in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Wild.

    Borowiecki fought Marcus Foligno and Nicolas Deslauriers in separate bouts in the first period of a contentious matchup. After the fisticuffs were through, Borowiecki helped out on a third-period tally by Matt Duchene. This was Borowiecki's first point since Jan. 15, and just his third assist with no goals in 45 games this season. The 32-year-old defenseman is a tough guy through and through -- he's added 124 PIM, 128 hits and just 31 shots on net.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Returning Tuesday

    Borowiecki (undisclosed) is in Tuesday's lineup against the Wild, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Borowiecki will suit up for the first time since March 22 after missing the last four games. The 32-year-old defenseman has two points and 146 hits through 44 games this season. He'll skate in a bottom-pair role Tuesday.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Out week-to-week

    Borowiecki (upper body) is considered week-to-week.

    Borowiecki left Tuesday's game versus the Kings after a collision with the board. Head coach John Hynes indicated the defenseman was okay, but that's obviously not the case given his week-to-week designation. Ben Harpur should see an increased role with Borowiecki out.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Hurt again Tuesday

    Borowiecki (undisclosed) suffered an injury in the second period of Tuesday's game versus the Kings, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Head coach John Hynes deemed the defenseman okay after the contest, though that doesn't guarantee he's clear of the injury since he didn't return to the contest. Borowiecki was playing in just his second game since he missed eight with a lower-body injury, but there was no indication that the two ailments were related. If the 32-year-old misses Thursday's game versus the Golden Knights, Ben Harpur would likely enter the lineup.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Expected to play Monday

    Borowiecki (lower body) is expected to be activated from injured reserve for Monday's tilt with the Ducks, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Borowiecki has missed the last eight games and 11 of the last 12. The physical blueliner is averaging 13:10 of ice time with two points and 143 hits through 42 appearances this season. He'll return to his usual bottom-four role.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Surfaces on IR

    Borowiecki (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.

    The Predators have yet to release an expected timetable for Borowiecki's return, but he's only picked up two assists through 42 games this season, so fantasy managers shouldn't need to track his status.

  • Predators' Mark Borowiecki: Out Tuesday

    Borowiecki (lower body) will not play Tuesday against Pittsburgh, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Borowiecki has now missed six straight games and nine of the last 10. Until another update is available, he can be considered out indefinitely.
