Predators center Kyle Turris exited the team's practice Monday after being clipped by a puck during a drill.

Turris was in front of the net when a shot appeared to change direction, striking him on the left side of his face. He sat on the bench for a few minutes before he returned to the locker room area at Centennial Sportsplex with a team trainer.

Predators coach Peter Laviolette, who spoke to reporters immediately after practice, didn't have an update on Turris' condition. Teammates didn't believe it to be serious.

Center Ryan Johansen, who has missed the Predators' past three games because of an upper-body injury, fully practiced Monday. He is on injured reserve but can be activated at any time.

The Predators depart Tuesday afternoon for western Canada, where they will play three games against the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday, Edmonton Oilers on Thursday and Calgary Flames on Saturday.

"I hope so," Johansen said Monday when asked if he'll be able to play against the Canucks (9 p.m., Fox TN). "If the next couple days go well, then it should be good to go."
