Canadiens' Alexandre Carrier: Removed from IR
Alexandre Carrier (upper body) was taken off injured reserve prior to his trade to Montreal on Wednesday, per Arpon Basu of The Athletic.With his injury concern behind him, Carrier should be in the mix to suit up for his new club against the Red Wings on Friday and will likely take the place of Jayden Struble in the lineup. The 28-year-old Carrier won't offer a ton of offense for the Habs considering he's managed just seven points through 28 games so far this year, but he could still produce in the 20-30 point range.

Canadiens' Alexandre Carrier: Heading north in trade
Alexandre Carrier (upper body) was traded to the Montreal Canadiens from the Predators on Wednesday in exchange for Justin Barron.Carrier remains on injured reserve for now, but he participated in a morning skate Tuesday prior to the Predators' game against the Rangers. Per Eric Engels of Sportsnet, Carrier has been cleared to play, so expect him to be activated in short order. The 28-year-old is in the first season of a three-year contract and has often filled a top-four role in Nashville. He should continue to do so in Montreal, though power-play time is unlikely with Lane Hutson and Mike Matheson already established in that situation. Carrier has seven points, 49 blocked shots, 31 hits, 23 shots on net and a minus-14 rating over 28 appearances this season.

Predators' Alexandre Carrier: Not ready to return
Alexandre Carrier (upper body) won't be an option versus the Rangers on Tuesday despite participating in the game-day skate, Robby Stanley of NHL.com reports.Carrier's absence is compounded by the fact that Roman Josi (lower body) and Jeremy Lauzon (lower body) also remain unavailable heading into Tuesday's matchup. Even once cleared to return, the 28-year-old Carrier probably won't offer much in the way of fantasy value considering he has gone 20 straight games without a goal while recording just 15 shots and three helpers over that stretch.

Predators' Alexandre Carrier: Absent from practice Monday
Alexandre Carrier (undisclosed) missed Monday's practice session, Brooks Bratten of the Nashville Predators' official site reports.Carrier was injured against Ottawa on Saturday and should probably be considered a doubt heading into Tuesday's game versus the Flames. The blueliner isn't exactly known for his offensive upside considering he has just one goal this season and is currently in a 20-game goal drought, during which he's added a mere three helpers. If Carrier is out Tuesday, Adam Wilsby is expected to move up to the top pairing with Roman Josi, while Marc Del Gaizo is likely to enter the lineup.

Predators' Alexandre Carrier: Garners assist Wednesday
