"I feel better. I took a couple days to rest and for precautionary reasons to let it heal," Schwartz told stlouisblues.com. "Everything has gone as planned and in the last few days, I made some progress. Got a couple of skates in. I'll be ready to go tonight."
The injury, which was listed as lower-body, occured after Schwartz blocked a shot in the first period of the Oct. 11 game vs. Calgary. He finished the game, recording one assist in 19 minutes of action.
"I noticed it right away," Schwartz said of the injury. "You don't really know the extent of the injury, but I felt it and I wasn't really sure exactly what it was or how bad it was until we looked at it the next day."
Schwartz is expected to return to a line with Brayden Schenn and David Perron tonight.
