Projected Lineup: Dec. 3 vs. Winnipeg

ST. LOUIS - The line of Robby Fabbri, Alexander Steen and Vladimir Tarasenko was very productive Thursday, combining for three goals and six assists (nine points) in a 5-4 win against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Blues Head Coach Ken Hitchcock said he really liked the line, so you can bet they'll probably be back together again tonight when the Blues meet the Winnipeg Jets at 6 p.m. at Scottrade Center (FSMW, KMOX).

"The line was very effective offensively," Hitchcock said. "They got a little bit tired and started puck watching defensively like the rest of us in the third period at times, but I liked a lot of the things that they did. They're hard to handle, they've got size, tenacity and skill. If you're willing to work with those types of skill sets, that's hard to handle. Every time they were out there in the offensive zone, the other team was having a difficult time."
The Blues held an optional morning skate on Saturday at Scottrade Center, so tonight's lineup is uncertain.
