As the preseason draws to a close on Saturday, the Nashville Predators have made five more cuts to their roster, narrowing the total down to 28 players. 

Forwards Jake Lucchini and Navrin Mutter; defensemen Kevin Gravel and Jordan Oesterle; and goaltender Matt Murray have all been reassigned to the Milwaukee Admirals and will report to the team's upcoming training camp. 

Gravel recorded an assist, Mutter logged a fight, and Murray made 12 saves on 12 shots in the Predators' 5-0 win over the Panthers. Murray also saw action in the Predators' 4-1 loss to the Lightning, allowing a goal on three shots. 

Mutter, Gravel and Lucchini all played the majority of last season in Milwaukee, but earned call-ups to Nashville. Oesterle played 15 games last season with the Predators, but did not suit up with the Admirals. Murray played the entirety of last season in Milwaukee. 

The Predators roster is now down to 6 forwards, 10 defensemen and two goaltenders. Defenseman Nicolas Hague is out for 4-6 weeks due to a lower body injury and forward Luke Evangelista is not rostered as he is still in contract negotiations.
