Nashville Predators forward Paul Gaustad will not join his team for their upcoming four-game road trip after suffering an upper-body injury, according to Adam Vingan of The Tennessean.
Gaustad didn't play during the third period of Saturday's 5-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche after seeing just 5:42 of ice time for the night.
The 34-year-old has just two goals and four assists in 57 games this season.
The Predators' next four games come against all four Western Canadian teams - which all sit outside playoff position - beginning Tuesday in Winnipeg.
