Status report
Blues coach Jim Montgomery juggled his forward lines and defense pairs during a 7-4 loss to the Utah Mammoth on Thursday, only leaving Buchnevich, Thomas and Kyrou consistently together. ... Kessel will enter the lineup for Mailloux, a defenseman. ... Red Wings coach Todd McLellan said Kane is “skating but not playing” and the forward is day to day; he will miss his fourth straight game. ... McLellan also said Hamonic, a defenseman, could enter the lineup.
