3 years agoSt. Louis Blues defenseman Torey Krug will be back in the lineup for Tuesday's matchup against Arizona. The 30-year-old rearguard returns after a five-game absence while in the league's COVID-19 protocols. The Blues have won just once without Krug and played very well with him in the lineup, so the former Bruin has been sorely missed. Krug has opened the season with eight points, 21 shots, eight hits and eight blocks in nine games. He'll join Justin Faulk on the second defensive pairing, and Krug can also look forward to power-play time on the first unit. The Coyotes are getting hammered by everyone this season, so it's a great matchup for his return. Oskar Sundqvist (knee) is also back for the Blues here, making his season debut.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
