St. Louis Game Time · Oct 14, 2022
Which Blues’ line can provide the most consistent offense?
Photo by Rich Graessle/Getty ImagesThe Blues’ opening night is tomorrow at 7:00 against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Jackets have already played one game on Wednesday night (losing 4-1 to the Carolina Hurricanes) and play again tonight sans Patrick Laine, who is out for three to four weeks.
The Blues, however, are putting finishing touches on their opening night plans. Jim Thomas has a first look at what the starting night’s forwards will look like at puck drop, and Even without David Perron, this is still a pretty good quartet of lines:
Brandon Saad-Ryan O’Reilly-Jordan Kyrou
Pavel Buchnevich-Robert Thomas-Vladimir Tarasenko
Jake Neighbours-Brayden Schenn-Ivan Barbashev
