Jori Lehtera (upper body) will play Thursday for Blues

St. Louis Blues center Jori Lehtera (upper body) will play on Thursday against the Buffalo Sabres.

What It Means:

Lehtera was originally questionable after being struck by a high stick on two separate occasions during Tuesday's contest.

Lehtera has played in all 19 of the Blues' games this season, recording 10 points (two goals, eight assists). He's tied for the team lead in assists, despite being being sixth in average time on ice among forwards. We project him to score 12 goals and tally 29 assists over the remaining course of the season. The 51 total points would surpass his current career high by seven.
