Status report

Carlsson will return after missing eight games with a concussion, and Jones returns after missing three with an illness. Lagesson, a defenseman, and Groulx, a forward, are expected to be healthy scratches. ... The Blues held an optional morning skate and are expected to play the same lineup, except for Hofer as the starting goalie, from a 3-2 shootout win against the Minnesota Wild on Saturday.
