Blues Back in Action After Layoff

A well-rested Blues team returns to action at home tonight against the Calgary Flames. The Blues haven’t played since Saturday, when they shut out the Blackhawks. The Flames are missing their top defenseman, Derek Morris, who is holding out. The Blues have fallen five points behind unbeaten conference leader Colorado. Calgary is just 3-5-1. St. Louis backup goaltender Brent Johnson will probably start against the Flames, with Roman Turek facing Dallas on Saturday.
