Krug logged a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 5-1 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Krug has earned three assists in his last four games, though this was his first power-play point since Dec. 1. The 31-year-old has yet to find extended success on offense this season, but he's still worth keeping around on fantasy rosters. He's up to five goals, nine helpers, six power-play points, 63 shots on net, 38 blocked shots, 25 hits and a minus-21 rating through 29 outings.

Krug recorded an assist and blocked two shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Krug has a pair of assists over four games since he returned from an upper-body injury. The 31-year-old is up to five tallies, 13 helpers, 61 shots on net, 38 blocked shots and a minus-22 rating in 28 contests overall. Krug should continue to have a fairly stable floor while working on the top power-play unit, but his plus-minus is an ugly mark when coupled with a drop in offense compared to what he's been capable of in the past.

Krug posted an assist and three shots on goal in Monday's 1-0 overtime win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Krug missed two games with an upper-body injury before returning Sunday. It took him just one extra contest to get back on the scoresheet, as he earned the secondary helper on Brayden Schenn's game-winning goal in overtime. Krug's overall play has left something to be desired this year, as his struggles have been among the most notable for a Blues team that has underwhelmed. The 31-year-old blueliner has five goals, seven assists, 57 shots on net, 35 blocked shots and a minus-23 rating through 26 appearances.

Krug (upper body) left during pre-game warmups and is not expected to play Monday against Anaheim, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Just as Colton Parayko is set to return from a three-game absence, it appears the Blues will be down another top blueliner for at least one game. Krug has four goals and eight points while averaging 19:39 of ice time through 17 games on the year. An update on his status should be available before Wednesday's game in Buffalo.

Krug scored a power-play goal in St. Louis' 5-4 shootout win against Washington on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Krug has three goals and seven points in 16 contests this season. He also has a minus-12 rating, which would be a career low if this was the end of the campaign. A lot of the players on the Blues have negative ratings though, thanks in no small part to the team's seven-game losing streak from Oct. 26-Nov. 8. He's maintained a neutral rating over his last five contests and if the Blues continue to rebound, then his rating should improve.
