Steen (undisclosed) is on the ice for Saturday's practice, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Steen missed Wednesday's scrimmage and a pair of practices thereafter, but it looks like he's good to go ahead of Sunday's flight to Edmonton. The veteran forward notched 17 points in 55 games during the regular season.

Steen (undisclosed) isn't on the ice for Wednesday's intrasquad scrimmage, Tom Timmermann of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Steen hasn't missed any practices since training camp kicked off July 13, so it's possible he's simply taking a maintenance day Wednesday. The 36-year-old vet picked up seven goals and 17 points in 55 games during the regular season.

Steen scored a goal and went plus-2 in Friday's 5-1 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Steen picked up the second rebound off a Colton Parayko slap shot, and he fired it past an out-of-position Ben Bishop. The 35-year-old doesn't score a ton -- he has 17 points over 46 games -- but his depth and penalty-killing upside will be instrumental for the Blues to defend their title.

Steen (lower body) blocked three shots in 14:43 during Friday's 4-2 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
The winger had to leave the Blues' last game Tuesday versus the Flames, but he returned to his familiar third-line role against the Oilers. He remains at 15 points and has added 55 shots on goal and 33 blocks in 36 contests this season. The 35-year-old is set to appear in his 1,000th game Saturday in his hometown of Winnipeg.

Steen (lower body) will be available for Friday's clash with Edmonton.
EDGE Analysis
Steen has been rolling of late, as he's racked up five goals and four helpers in his last nine outings. Despite the recent strong run of form, the winger will likely miss the 40-point mark for the second straight year, in part due to an ankle injury that cost him 16 games earlier in the year.

Head coach Craig Berube said Steen (lower body) has "a very good chance" to play Friday versus the Oilers, Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Steen didn't play in the third period of Tuesday's win over the Flames, but this isn't expected to be an issue going forward. That's good news since Oskar Sundqvist (lower body) has been placed on IR and Mackenzie MacEachern's (lower body) status is uncertain. If Steen is indeed good to go, he'll continue to flank Robert Thomas on the third line. Steen has enjoyed an impressive January with five goals and four assists over 10 games.

Steen has a lower-body injury and will not return to Tuesday's game against the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear how Steen got hurt, but it's clearly bad enough to rule him out during the third period. He scored a goal and blocked a shot in 8:43 before the injury. If Steen isn't available for Friday's game in Edmonton, the Blues will hope MacKenzie MacEachern (lower body) or Oskar Sundqvist (lower body) are able to take his place in the lineup.

Steen scored a goal and dished a power-play assist in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Steen set up Justin Faulk's opening tally at 14:24 of the first period. In the third, Steen netted the equalizer at 13:39, helping the Blues earn one standings point. The 35-year-old has been hot in January with four goals and four helpers over his last seven games. Steen has just 14 points and a plus-14 rating through 32 contests this season, but his recent form makes him viable in DFS as a budget option.

Steen scored a goal and fired two shots on net in Monday's 4-1 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Steen has surged recently with three goals and four helpers over his last seven contests. The 35-year-old has only 12 points with a plus-13 rating in 31 games this season. He's no longer a top-six player, but the Blues are a deep team with scoring threats all over the lineup. With some recent success, Steen could be worth a look in deeper formats.

Steen scored twice and added an assist in Thursday's 5-1 win over Buffalo. He had five shots and was plus-4.
EDGE Analysis
Injury and lack of production have made it a miserable season for the 35-year-old winger, but he finally scored his first two goals of the season in the third period. Steen also assisted on Robert Thomas' opening goal, giving him a three point night after he had entered the game with just eight assists in 28 games. Steen's offensive game has tapered off with age and Thursday's performance is likely more of a blip than a sign of things to come. Still, it was an encouraging performance for the veteran.
