Sergei Kostitsyn suffered an MCL injury Saturday and will need two-four weeks to recover.

It was the last game of the regular season and with the Predators on the outside looking in at the playoffs, it will only interfere with his off-season. Just an FYI as he had only three goals and 15 points in 46 games this season and should not have been in your lineup.

Sergei Kostitsyn potted a goal and also registered an assist in the Predators' 3-2 win over the Oilers Monday night.

Kostitsyn has never been an offensive juggernaut, but this is still a disappointing 2013 season for the Belarus native. With the two-point night, Kostitsyn has only 13 points in 31 games this season.

Sergei Kostitsyn got back into Nashville's lineup Thursday after he was a healthy scratch on Tuesday.

Kostitsyn gave up on a play and headed for a line change, which resulted in a two-on-one rush and shorthanded goal for Edmonton on Sunday. He logged 17:17 of ice time in his return, while posting a plus-2 rating and one shot.

Kostitsyn turned the puck over in the Predators last game and instead of hustling back on defense he opted to make a line-change and allow the Oilers to go in on a 2-on-1 which ultimately led to a goal. Coach Trotz obviously was not impressed by this, making Kostitsyn a healthy scratch tonight. Taylor Beck will make his NHL debut tonight in the place of Kostitsyn.

Sergei Kostitsyn will not dress Tuesday after his mental lapse during Sunday's loss to the Edmonton oilers.

Kostitsyn lost the puck during a power play and called for a change rather than backchecking on what became a 2-on-1 rush and eventual goal for the Oilers. For his part, Kostitsyn held himself accountable for the mistake, but his benching shouldn't come as a surprise at all. Get him out of your lineup tonight and expect him back in for Thursday night.

Sergei Kostitsyn will play the point on the first power play.

The move was made in practice as Kostitsyn will join Shea Weber on the point, replacing Roman Josi. "I think we need to distribute the puck a little bit better than we are," coach Barry Trotz said. "That's one thing Sergei can do and has done in the past." The Preds are only 1-11 in their last five games with the man-advantage so they are looking for a spark. Kostitsyn has two goals and nine points in 22 games but is plus-eight this season.
