@lkorac10 Berube said Kessel will make NHL debut today, Bortuzzo dealing with upper body injury but is close. Also, Thomas, Buchnevich and Bortuzzo all skated this AM and Berube is hopeful for two of them Tuesday but none will play today. #stlblues

@lkorac10 Craig Berube said the intent for Joel Hofer was to go on the last road trip, he was going to play a game in California, and he was going to Springfield once the trip ended regardless to help the Thunderbirds down the stretch and into the playoffs. #stlblues
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Mar 28, 2023
@jprutherford The Blues have re-assigned Hofer @ThunderbirdsAHL. In the press release, the club says this was the original plan, so not a reaction to Hofer giving up 5G on 17 shots in last night's 7-6 loss to LA. #stblues

@lkorac10 Kasperi Kapanen's seventh goal came in his 14th game with the #stlblues since being claimed on waivers. It matched the number of goals he had with the #pens in 43 games this season. He has 10 points in STL, had 20 in PIT.

— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Mar 25, 2023
@jthom1 In case you were wondering, Berube said he dressed Greiss as backup goalie (and not Binnington) because Greiss played for Detroit and also because Binnington got a lot of work in practice Thursday morning.
