Krug scored a goal in a 5-3 victory over San Jose on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Krug has two goals and six points in 12 games this season. He's been on a bit of a roll with four points in his last six contests. Krug recorded at least 40 points in six of his last seven campaigns, and he's capable of reaching that milestone again in 2022-23.

Krug was credited with an assist during Monday's 3-1 loss to the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Krug, who spent parts of nine seasons with the Bruins, helped secure Brayden Schenn's second-period, game-tying tally by passing to Jordan Kyrou, who then executed a successful give-and-go. The 31-year-old defenseman has recorded three points during his past four games, but like most of the Blues' roster, he is struggling on defense. Krug, who was a plus-23 in 64 outings last season, has posted a minus-11 rating in 10 appearances.

Krug (upper body) is good to play in Thursday's game against the Islanders, per Lou Korac of NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Krug left Monday's 5-1 loss to Los Angeles during the third period, but he didn't end up missing a full game because of the upper-body injury. He's projected to serve on the second pairing with Justin Faulk on Thursday. Krug has a goal, three points, two hits and 10 blocks in eight games this season while averaging 19:49 of ice time.

Krug (upper body) left during the third period of Monday's loss to Los Angeles, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

EDGE Analysis

Krug logged a season-low 16:19 of ice time before exiting Monday's contest. He'll have a few days to rest before Thursday's game against the Islanders but more information on his status should be available before then. Krug has three points with a minus-10 rating through eight games this season.

Krug notched the game-winning goal Saturday in a 2-0 victory over the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

He stepped into a pass from Vladimir Tarasenko and one-timed it from the point for a power-play snipe early in the first period. Krug has one goal and one assist in three games this season.

Krug (lower body) is on the ice for practice Thursday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Krug missed the final nine games of St. Louis' 2021-22 playoff run with a lower-body injury, but it appears as though he's made a full recovery. The 31-year-old defender racked up nine goals and 43 points through 64 regular-season games last season.

Krug (lower body) is unlikely to return for Game 6 on Friday or Game 7 on Sunday (if necessary) against Colorado, per Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Krug has missed eight contests after suffering a lower-body injury in the Blues' opening-round series against the Wild. While the 31-year-old defenseman has resumed skating, it doesn't sound like he'll be an option for St. Louis unless the team is able to advance past the Avalanche. Krug recorded 9 goals and 34 assists through 64 contests during the regular season.

Krug (lower body) was on the ice for Monday's game-day skate, just the second time the blueliner has skated during his recovery, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The fact that Krug has just begun skating effectively rules him out versus Colorado on Monday but the blueliner is clearly making strides in his return to action. Whenever the Michigan native is given the all-clear, he should get back to logging big minutes for the Blues, including running the No. 1 power-play unit.

According to coach Craig Berube, Krug (lower body) will go to Denver "for rehab purposes," Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Krug missed the final three games of St. Louis' first-round win over Minnesota with a lower-body issue, and the fact that he's heading to Colorado to rehab his injury suggests he's likely still a ways away from returning to action. Youngster Scott Perunovich will probably continue to man the point on the Blues' No. 1 power-play unit until Krug is cleared to rejoin the lineup.

According to coach Craig Berube, Krug (lower body) "will be out a bit," Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It sounds like Krug will likely miss multiple contests with his lower-body issue. If Robert Bortuzzo (upper body) and Nick Leddy (upper body) are also unable to go, the Blues will likely have to insert Steve Santini into the lineup for Sunday's pivotal Game 4 versus the Wild.
