Blues look forward to healthier lineup, but outside reinforcements could come, too

The Blues are fourth in the standings, but they may be leading in trade rumors. The most recent one centers on speedy Tampa Bay Lightning winger Jonathan Drouin, who has demanded a trade and was recently suspended for not showing up to an American Hockey League game.

General manager Doug Armstrong has been looking for a scorer to bolster an offense that ranks 18th in goals per game (2.50).

Perhaps an offensive spark seems less urgent this week because the Blues have won five of their past six games. They’ve scored 11 goals during their three-game winning streak.
