Jordan Kyrou, Jake Neighbours Knocked Out of the Lineup Tuesday

St. Louis Blues forwards Jordan Kyrou (upper body) and Jake Neighbours (lower body) couldn't complete Tuesday's tilt against the Dallas Stars. St. Louis lost Neighbours to a lower-body injury in the first frame, and Kyrou sustained an upper-body injury in the third. The two started the game on the second line alongside Pavel Buchnevich. Injuries have been a constant concern for the Blues up front, and the team will be desperate to have at least one of Neighbours and Kyrou available on Thursday night against the Florida Panthers. If both miss time, Dalibor Dvorsky and Robby Fabbri are potential candidates to fill the top six spots.

Dylan Holloway Remains Out Tuesday

St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway (ankle) won't play on Tuesday against the Dallas Stars. He recently reaggravated an ankle injury and will be sidelined for a fourth consecutive game. While Holloway is considered day-to-day, it's unclear whether he can return to action before the Olympic break. The Blues will replace Otto Stenberg with Robby Fabbri on Tuesday night in the attack, while Jonatan Berggren is expected to continue in a top-line role. After starting well in St. Louis, Berggren has gone scoreless in eight consecutive appearances.

Dylan Holloway Out Friday

St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway (ankle) won't play on Friday night against the Dallas Stars. Holloway recently returned from a high-ankle sprain, but he landed back on the shelf after making just one appearance. Friday's game will be his second consecutive absence. The 24-year-old has returned to St. Louis for a precautionary MRI and is considered day-to-day. Holloway has taken a big step backwards this season, recording only 17 points (eight goals, nine assists) in 34 games. With Holloway unavailable, Jonatan Berggren has moved to the first line. The Blues' attack will also have Mathieu Joseph (elbow) back from a seven-game absence on Friday night.

Oskar Sundqvist Suffers Skate Cut Sunday

St. Louis Blues forward Oskar Sundqvist (lower body) was involved in a scary incident during Sunday's 5-0 loss to the Edmonton Oilers, suffering a skate cut. He needed assistance to leave the ice in the third period after being cut by a skate on his lower body. "Luckily, it did not touch his Achilles," Blues head coach Jim Montgomery said after the game. "So it's just going to be now, how long he's out, it's day-to-day... We know the cut was deep, I don't know how long that takes until he's back and has the flexibility in his ankle without hurting the cut." Sundqvist operates in a bottom-six role, recording 10 points (three goals, 10 assists) and 47 hits in 39 appearances this season. The team will turn to Robby Fabbri or Jonatan Berggren to fill Sundqvist's spot in the lineup.

Dylan Holloway Set to Return Sunday

St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway (ankle) will rejoin the lineup on Sunday night against the Edmonton Oilers. He has missed 15 games due to an ankle injury. Holloway is likely to fill a top-six role and should also see power-play time. Many Blues players have struggled this season, and Holloway is among them. In 33 games, he has picked up 17 points (eight goals, nine assists). On Sunday night, Holloway will go up against an Oilers team that just recorded its third shutout of the season.

Joel Hofer Controls Hurricanes Tuesday

St. Louis Blues goaltender Joel Hofer produced a 33-save shutout against the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday night, backstopping his team to a 3-0 victory. Hofer became the first Blues goaltender with four shutouts in a season since Jordan Binnington in 2018-19, tying Ilya Sorokin of the New York Islanders and Jesper Wallstedt of the Minnesota Wild for the league lead. After an awful start to the season, Hofer began to pick up form in December and has enjoyed a 4-2-0 stretch. He has improved his record to 10-9-2 and has a 2.81 goals-against average and a .902 save percentage for the season.

Robert Thomas Out Tuesday

St. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas (lower body) won't play on Tuesday against the Carolina Hurricanes and is considered day-to-day. Reports indicate that Thomas recently aggravated a lower-body injury. Thomas tops the Blues with 33 points (11 goals, 22 assists) through 42 games and stands as the team's only player to reach at least 25 points this season. With Thomas sidelined, Brayden Schenn and Dalibor Dvorsky will operate as the top-six centers. At the same time, Nick Bjugstad (upper body) will return from a 15-game absence and slot into the lineup as the third-line center.

Philip Broberg Likely Out Tuesday

St. Louis Blues defenseman Philip Broberg is in concussion protocol and is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Carolina Hurricanes, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports. On Monday, Blues head coach Jim Montgomery said the team's medical staff is "very happy" with Broberg's progress. But he is poised to miss time after getting hurt during Saturday's loss to the Vegas Golden Knights. Broberg, who inked a six-year, $48 million contract extension last week, has registered 15 points (two goals, 13 assists), 58 shots, and 71 blocks with a plus-one rating in 46 outings this season. Matthew Kessel is expected to take Broberg's place in the lineup on Tuesday.

Philip Broberg Suffers Upper-Body Injury Saturday

St. Louis Blues defenseman Philip Broberg (upper body) was limited to 55 seconds of ice time in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights. He exited the action due to an upper-body injury shortly after assisting Robert Thomas on the game's opening goal. It was a sad ending to an exciting day for Broberg, who inked a six-year, $48 million extension with the Blues only a few hours before the game. Broberg's new contract demonstrates the organization's continued confidence in him, even after an underwhelming 2025-26 season. The Swedish blue-liner has recorded 15 points (two goals, 13 assists), 58 shots, and 71 blocks.

Nathan Walker Ready to End 16-Game Absence

St. Louis Blues left wing Nathan Walker (upper body) will return from a 16-game absence on Wednesday night against the Chicago Blackhawks. He will team up with Alexey Toropchenko and Oskar Sundqvist on the fourth line. Walker was in the midst of a solid offensive stretch when he got hurt at the start of December. The 31-year-old has notched nine points (three goals, six assists) in 25 appearances this season, while averaging 3.8 hits per game. Mathieu Joseph will be in the press box on Wednesday to accommodate Walker's return.

Jordan Binnington Logs First Shutout of Season

St. Louis Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington pushed aside 25 pucks for his first shutout of the season in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Montreal Canadiens. After Joel Hofer beat the Vegas Golden Knights 4-3 on Friday, Binnington got the nod for the second leg of a back-to-back and registered a much-needed shutout victory. In December, Binnington lost all but one start, producing a horrible .835 save percentage. The 32-year-old has been off form all season, allowing 3.40 goals with a .874 save percentage, while going 8-10-6 with 23 starts. Binnington has yet to win consecutive starts this season, a goal he will look to achieve in his next appearance.

Pius Suter to Miss at Least Four Weeks

St. Louis Blues forward Pius Suter (ankle) will sit out at least four weeks of action. He injured his right ankle during Saturday's 3-2 win over the Nashville Predators. Suter has gone 10 consecutive games without registering a point. However, he was sharp early in the campaign and has managed 14 points (seven goals, seven assists) in 37 games for the season. Robby Fabbri is slated to replace Suter in the lineup on Monday against the Buffalo Sabres. Since joining the team on Dec. 10, Fabbri has recorded two assists in six appearances.

Jordan Kyrou, Jimmy Snuggerud Back for Blues Saturday

St. Louis Blues forwards Jordan Kyrou (lower body) and Jimmy Snuggerud (wrist) will return to action Saturday night against the Nashville Predators. Kyrou has missed nine games due to a lower-body injury, while Snuggerud is returning from a wrist injury that cost him 12 games. Both players will have middle-six roles and operate on St. Louis' first power-play unit. Nashville has the eighth-best penalty kill in the league this season (82.6 percent), but this is still a favorable matchup for the Blues, as they face the NHL's sixth-worst defense.

Jonatan Berggren • RW • Blues

Jonatan Berggren Totals Three Points Saturday

St. Louis Blues right wing Jonatan Berggren tallied three points in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Florida Panthers, scoring a power-play goal and adding two assists. This was Berggren's third appearance for the Blues after he was claimed off waivers last week. Berggren struggled to get playing time in Detroit this season but has been a good fit in St. Louis. He saw first-line usage on Saturday and has scored in back-to-back games, boasting four points (two goals, two assists) through his first three outings with his new team. Overall, Berggren has registered 10 points (four goals, six assists) in 18 appearances this season.

Joel Hofer Notches Third Shutout of the Season

St. Louis Blues goaltender Joel Hofer recorded his third shutout of the season on Wednesday night, stopping the Winnipeg Jets from scoring with 24 saves in a 1-0 win. Hofer became the fifth goalie this season with as many as three shutouts. Minnesota's Jesper Wallstedt is the only one with four. While Hofer has impressed at times, he still holds a disappointing 6-7-2 record. The 25-year-old has allowed 2.97 goals with a .896 save percentage. St. Louis averages the second-fewest goals in the league, making it tough for the team's goalies to please fantasy managers. Jordan Binnington, who is 7-8-5 for the year, will take over the crease for Thursday's matchup against the New York Rangers.

Dylan Holloway to Miss Six Weeks

St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway (ankle) has been ruled out for six weeks. He injured his right ankle at Sunday's practice. The injury is set to keep Holloway sidelined until at least late January. Very few things have gone right for Holloway in 2025-26, as he has totaled only 17 points (eight goals, nine assists) in 33 games. Alexey Toropchenko (leg) will replace Holloway in the lineup on Monday against the Nashville Predators, returning to action after a seven-game absence. Robby Fabbri will move into the top six. Since signing with the Blues earlier this month, Fabbri has posted assists in back-to-back games, and a spot on a scoring line elevates his fantasy value.

Dylan Holloway Injured at Sunday's Practice

St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway (lower body) could be forced to miss time after getting hurt at Sunday's practice. He suffered a lower-body injury and needed to be helped off the ice. The Blues will continue their season on Monday against the Nashville Predators. Holloway has so far featured in all 33 games this season, posting 17 points (eight goals, nine assists). He has been a disappointment in fantasy hockey for most of the campaign, finishing five of his last seven appearances pointless. Alexei Toropchenko (leg) is expected to return to the lineup on Monday and might replace Holloway against Nashville.

Nick Bjugstad • C • Blues

Nick Bjugstad to Miss at Least Three Games

St. Louis Blues center Nick Bjugstad (upper body) will be out "at least five days," head coach Jim Montgomery announced on Wednesday. The veteran forward suffered an upper-body injury in Tuesday's loss to the Boston Bruins. St. Louis will play three games over the next five days. Jordan Kyrou (lower body), Jimmy Snuggerud (wrist), Alexei Toropchenko (leg), and Nathan Walker (upper body) are also out, leaving the Blues shorthanded up front. To address the situation, the team signed Robby Fabbri to a one-year, two-way contract on Wednesday. Fabbri, who previously played for the Blues from 2015 to 2019, could make his first appearance of the season on Thursday night against the Nashville Predators.

Nick Bjugstad • C • Blues

Nick Bjugstad Injured Tuesday

St. Louis Blues forward Nick Bjugstad (upper body) was unable to finish Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Boston Bruins. He sustained an upper-body injury in the second period. Bjugstad has been a non-factor for most of the season, amassing five points (four goals, one assist) in 25 outings, but his experience and availability are assets for the team. The Blues are struggling badly with injuries and were already without four forwards for Tuesday's game. Hugh McGing looks set to be the next man up to enter the lineup if Bjugstad lands on the shelf for Thursday's clash against the Nashville Predators. The 27-year-old has gone scoreless in his previous six NHL appearances and should not be seen as a fantasy target.

Jordan Kyrou • C • Blues

Jordan Kyrou Out Week-to-Week

St. Louis Blues forward Jordan Kyrou (lower body) will miss a second consecutive game on Tuesday against the Boston Bruins and is considered week-to-week. Blues head coach Jim Montgomery told reporters that Kyrou is anticipated to miss at least one week of action, meaning he will probably sit out three more games after Tuesday night. Mathieu Joseph will get a look on the second against Boston after he recorded one assist in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Montreal Canadiens. Joseph hasn't managed points in back-to-back games since February, recording eight points (two goals, six assists) in 24 outings this season.
