UPDATE: Jordan Kyrou will not play Friday night in Edmonton due to an illness.
The St. Louis Blues seek a third consecutive win on Friday night when they visit the Edmonton Oilers at Rogers Place (8 p.m. CT, BSMW, 101 ESPN).
The Blues will be looking to snap Edmonton's eight-game home winning streak. With a victory, the Oilers would match a franchise record with nine straight home wins.

Blues Head Coach Craig Berube held an optional morning skate Friday, and only a small group of Blues took the ice. The projected lineup below is based primarily on Wednesday's 4-3 win against the Canucks.
Berube said Jordan Kyrou's availability for Friday's game would not be determined until after the optional skate. Kyrou missed Wednesday's game due to illness.
Berube also said he would be sticking with Calle Rosen and Robert Bortuzzo on the third defensive pair.
