Blues at Avalanche Projected Lineup

The Blues are countering the depleted Avalanche with some pretty decent looking lines.

The Colorado Avalanche aren’t doing too well right now (you may have heard that they’re missing half of their top six), but the Blues? They’re fine.

Except for David Perron. Maybe. No one knows.

If Perron is healthy, these will more than likely be the lines that the team rolls tonight in Colorado. From stlouisblues.com:

Forwards

Saad - O’Reilly - Perron*

Kyrou - Schenn - Buchnevich

Neal - Thomas - Tarasenko

Neighbours - Bozak - Barbashev

Defense

Scandella - Parayko

Krug - Faulk

Walman - Bortuzzo

Goalie

Binnington

If Perron doesn’t play, Klim Kostin more than likely gets slotted in on the fourth line, and Ivan Barbashev moves up a bit. On forward, that’s some good depth. On the back end, it’s what we’re all used to. Here’s hoping some of Justin Faulk’s magic rubs off on Torey Krug. A bounceback year for Krug would go a long way to silence people who were disappointed by his first year with the team, much like it helped Faulk last season
