Projected Lineup: Dec. 22 at Tampa Bay

TAMPA BAY - Blues center Kyle Brodziak could move up to the third line with Paul Stastny out of the lineup tonight due to an upper-body injury.
Brodziak was skating with Robby Fabbri and Dmitrij Jaskin on Thursday during the team's pregame skate in Tampa Bay.
"Brodzy is a third-line center that plays on the fourth line here," Blues Head Coach Ken Hitchcock said. "This is the best year he's had since he came here, and I'm sure he can handle a few games there right now."

Tonight's lineup could also see the NHL debut of Wade Megan, who was called up from the Chicago Wolves earlier Thursday morning. Megan ranks third in Chicago with 24 points (13 goals, 11 assists) in 28 games this season.
"Our understanding is he's played really well. He's gotten great reports down there," Hitchcock said. "Obviously he's scoring like crazy. (He's a) smart player, he was noticeable in training camp, he stayed right to the end. If you're looking for a center, he's the guy you choose becuase he's dominating down there."
Here is the projected lineup for tonight's 6:30 p.m. game from Tampa Bay.
