Robert Bortuzzo will be back in the lineup Friday night when the St. Louis Blues meet the Tampa Bay Lightning at 7 p.m. CT (TNT, 101 ESPN).
Bortuzzo last played in the Nov. 8 matchup with the Philadelphia Flyers before missing the next seven games with an upper-body injury. He was activated off of injured reserve ahead of Wednesday's game against Buffalo, but Blues Head Coach Craig Berube opted to rest him one more game.
