ST. LOUIS - Just as he did for Saturday's matchup with the Winnipeg Jets, Blues Head Coach Craig Berube figures to do some line juggling for Tuesday's game against the Carolina Hurricanes (7 p.m., FSMW, 101 ESPN).
The Blues are looking for a spark after going 1-3-0 on a four-game road trip through Canada. The team will begin a three-game homestand on Tuesday and will look to extend a 10-game point streak (9-0-1) at Enterprise Center.

The team held an optional practice on Tuesday, but if Monday's team practice at Centene Community Ice Center is any indication, expect Zach Sanford, who has points in five straight games (two goals, five assists), to remain in his spot alongside Ryan O'Reilly and David Perron. Robert Thomas practiced Tuesday on the second line with Jaden Schwartz and Brayden Schenn, while Jordan Kyrou shifted to the third line with Alexander Steen and Tyler Bozak.
Troy Brouwer, who returned to the lineup Saturday, could remain in the lineup with Sammy Blais and Ivan Barbashev.
Here is a projected lineup based on Monday's team practice, although it is subject to change.
