Texier won't play against Colorado on Saturday due to an upper-body injury, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Texier has only appeared in four of the Blues' last 23 games, serving primarily as a healthy scratch this year. Even once the 25-year-old center is given the all-clear, he could struggle to break into St. Louis' lineup on a nightly basis. Mathieu Joseph figures to step into the lineup since both Texier and Dylan Holloway (lower body) are on the shelf.

Texier scored a goal and added two PIM in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

Texier is trying his best to avoid returning to the press box, as he's scored in back-to-back games. He was a healthy scratch for 11 contests from late February through most of March, but he's taking advantage of his opportunity now. For the season, the 25-year-old has six goals, 11 points, 50 shots on net and a minus-2 rating across 30 appearances.

Texier tallied a power-play goal and had two shots on net in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Texier tallied a power-play goal in the first period to give him his first point since returning from a lingering illness. With the marker, the 25-year-old Texier has five goals, 10 points and 49 shots on goal in 29 appearances this season. Since his return, which also featured a stretch of 11 games as a healthy scratch, Texier has been featured on St. Louis' third line and second power-play unit. The Blues have been thriving offensively during their six-game winning streak, so Texier re-enters the lineup in an excellent position to make a late-season run in points. There are likely better names to look out for on the waiver wire, but keep an eye on Texier if St. Louis continues to shine on offense.

Texier has recovered from his lengthy illness but will be a healthy scratch versus Washington on Thursday, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Texier missed five games with the illness, dating back to Feb. 6 against Florida. Texier has four goals and nine points in 27 outings with the Blues this season.

Texier (illness) will not be in the lineup versus the Kraken on Tuesday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Texier will be out of action for his fifth straight game due to his lingering illness, which began prior to the break for the 4 Nations Face-Off. Still, the 25-year-old natural center was on the ice for Tuesday's game-day skate, which could be an indication he is nearing a return. Even when healthy, Texier may have to settle for a spot in the press box periodically as a healthy scratch.

Texier is unavailable for Sunday's game against Colorado due to an illness.

EDGE Analysis

Texier dealt with an illness ahead of the 4 Nations Face-Off break. He didn't play in Saturday's game against the Jets, and he'll be unavailable for the second half of the back-to-back set, but it's unclear whether his current illness is related to his previous ailment. His next opportunity to suit up will be at home against the Kraken on Tuesday.

Texier (illness) will be in the lineup Saturday against the Jets, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

Texier also missed St. Louis' 3-2 loss to Florida on Thursday. He has four goals and nine points in 27 outings in 2024-25. The Blues return to action versus Winnipeg on Feb. 22 after the 4 Nations Face-Off, and Texier could be an option to play.

Texier (illness) might be available Saturday versus Chicago, per Lou Korac of NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Nothing has been decided, but Texier's return is at least a possibility if his condition improves. He has four goals and nine points in 27 appearances. He will likely serve in a bottom-six capacity if he does draw back into the lineup.

Texier (illness) will not be in the lineup versus Florida on Thursday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Texier has four goals and five assists over 27 games this season, his first in St. Louis after spending parts of five seasons with Columbus. The 25-year-old is expected to be replaced in the lineup by Mathieu Joseph, who has apparently recovered from his illness that forced him to sit out Tuesday.
