Jaden Schwartz practiced on Sunday after getting hurt Saturday.

Schwartz was hobbling during the third period of Game 3 Saturday but there were no ill effects Sunday. "Just a little banged up at the time, but it's fine now," Schwartz said. "I got a little bit twisted up when I fell into the boards, but it's fine now. I just wanted to see how it feels - a short little skate for the team - but it was good to get out there and feel the puck a little bit." He should be in the lineup for Game 4 Tuesday.

Looks like Schwartz will draw on to the top line while Perron finds himself anchoring Reaves and Cracknell on the 4th

Jaden Schwartz potted a goal and also registered an assist in the Blues' 4-1 win over the Wild Monday night.

The talent is there for Schwartz to be a productive NHL player, but he's still only 20 years old and the Blues are deep enough where he's getting bottom-line minutes. He has nine points in 31 games in this 48-game shortened season.

Look for rookie Jaden Schwartz to play on the Blues top line again in Sunday's matchup with the Dallas Stars.

Schwartz was moved to the top unit alongside T.J. Oshie and David Backes for Friday's 4-2 win over the Oilers and he delivered with a goal, an assist and six shots on goal after accumulating only three points and 12 shots in his first 16 contests. Coach Ken Hitchcock was pleased to find a trio that clicked for his struggling team and made clear that Schwartz would stay in that spot Sunday, saying "He's not going out of that role ... trust me!".

Jaden Schwartz excelled for the St. Louis Blues in their 4-2 victory over Edmonton Friday night and coach Ken Hitchcock liked what he saw from the 20-year-old.

Schwartz scored a goal and added an assist. He "was the catalyst," Hitchcock said. "He played the right way, which was really good to see. I thought he gave the line some real moxie. I thought he played his best game for us." Expect Schwartz to stay put when the Blues begin a season-long, five-game road trip starting in Dallas on Sunday. The Blues had been imploring Schwartz to put more pucks on net, but through 16 games this season, many on the fourth line, the left winger had only managed to post two shots in one game. On Friday Schwartz had six shots - and that was through the second period. He had a half-dozen shots in 8:47 of ice time, scoring the Blues' first goal of the game. He was put on a line with stars David Backes and T.J. Oshie so don't be surprised if Schwartz starts racking up points.

Jaden Schwartz notched a goal and an assist to help St. Louis defeat Edmonton on Friday night 4-2.

The talent is there for Schwartz, who also had six shots on goal, to be a productive NHL player, but he's still only 20 years old and the Blues are deep enough where he's getting bottom-line minutes. Thus, Schwartz's points were just his fifth of the season. David Backes and Vladimir Sobotka also had a goal and an assist apiece, while T.J. Oshie chipped in with two helpers.
