Who needs goal scorers?

From John Glennon we have a frightening update prior to tonight’s Predators/Canadiens tilt in Montreal:
An offensively challenged Nashville team will be without its two top goal-scorers tonight, as center Jason Arnott (lower body) and defenseman Shea Weber (foot) will miss the contest against the Canadiens.
Preds coach Barry Trotz is hopeful Weber will be back for Saturday’s game against Atlanta, but is calling Arnott questionable for that contest.
New call-up Alexander Sulzer will get his first NHL action, and should see plenty of time, since other defenders are banged up or ill as well.
