UPDATE: Mike Hoffman is unable to play on Opening Night due to his work visa still needing approval. Based on pregame warm-ups, expect Sammy Blais to enter the lineup and play on the fourth line. Oskar Sundqvist appears to be moving up to the second line.
DENVER - For the most part, Blues Head Coach Craig Berube kept his lines the same throughout Training Camp and that seems to be the case for Wednesday's season-opening contest against the Colorado Avalanche (9:30 p.m. CT, NBCSN, 101 ESPN).

The same forward lines and defense pairings were together for Wednesday's game day skate in Colorado. Jordan Binnington is expected to start in goal.
Below is a projected lineup for the game based on Wednesday's practice.
