Weber is dealing with an illness and is not expected to play Thursday against the Jets, Tom Callahan of 94.9 FM The Game reports.Weber was absent from Thursday's morning skate for what the Predators called "maintenance purposes," but it appears the team was concealing his illness. Taylor Aronson was recalled from AHL Milwaukee late in the afternoon, and appears poised to replace Weber in the lineup. The star blueliner, who has 12 goals, 24 assists, and a plus-17 rating, has suited up for all 54 of the Predators' games this season. Confirmation on Weber's expected absence should come during pregame warmups, but those in daily leagues who were planning on using the defenseman will want to begin exploring other options.
