Torey Krug (hand) is “getting close” to a return to the lineup, per coach Craig Berube. Krug was on the ice for Monday’s practice and he will travel with the team. Berube mentioned that there’s a chance that Krug (hand) or Tyler Bozak (lower body) could play as early as Tuesday against Boston. He didn’t who was the possibility to play, but there is speculation that he was referring to Krug because the Blues defender figured much more prominently in Monday’s practice. When Krug was asked about a potential return he said, “Maybe, I don’t know yet. I’ve got to decide.”
