Preview: Blues vs. Wild

After several rounds of training camp roster cuts, the St. Louis Blues are inching closer to their team for the start of the 2022-23 season.
With three preseason games remaining, Blues Head Coach Craig Berube figures to have a more-veteran heavy lineup as the exhibition schedule enters its final stretch.

"We've got to get our guys in there, for sure, as a team. As much as we can, we will," Berube said Monday. "That's definitely something on the list here."
Players expected to play on Tuesday against the Minnesota Wild (7 p.m., Bally Sports app, 101 ESPN) include Pavel Buchnevich, Jordan Kyrou, Ryan O'Reilly, Brandon Saad, Brayden Schenn, Robert Thomas, Torey Krug, Colton Parayko and Jordan Binnington.
Vladimir Tarasenko (sick) missed Monday's practice, while Logan Brown also was out with an upper-body injury sustained in Saturday's game against the Dallas Stars. Neither player is expected to play Tuesday.
The Blues are 4-1 in the preseason thus far.
Minnesota is 4-0.
