Defenseman Brent Seabrook will not play for the Blackhawks against the Predators on Wednesday night due to an illness, the Blackhawks announced prior to puck drop.
Seabrook has four goals and 12 assists in 45 games this season.
With Seabrook out and Gustav Forsling put on injured reserve earlier in the day with an upper-torso injury, here’s how the Blackhawks will line up on the back end against the Predators:
Duncan Keith — Erik Gustafsson
Carl Dahlstrom — Connor Murphy
Brandon Davidson — Henri Jokiharju
Jokiharju draws back into the lineup after winning gold with the Finnish national junior team at the World Junior Championship in Vancouver, British Columbia. He had two goals and three assists at the tournament.
