The Predators placed forwards Patric Hornqvist and Colin Wilson on injured reserve Monday.

Wilson has seven goals and 12 assists for a team-high 19 points in 25 games this season, while Hornqvist has three goals and five assists in 14 games. Both players are dealing with upper-body injuries.

In addition, the club recalled forward Matt Halischuk from Milwaukee of the AHL and activated forward Brandon Yip from IR. Halischuk has one assist in 16 games for the Predators this season, while Yip hasn't played since March 2 and has two goals with three assists in 19 games.
