Jake Neighbours Expected to Play for Blues Despite Maintenance Day

AutoDraft Pro AI

St. Louis Blues forward Jake Neighbours, who was absent from Friday's practice for a maintenance day, is considered a game-time decision but is expected to play on Saturday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. His availability, along with Jimmy Snuggerud and Pius Suter, led to the emergency recall of Matt Luff from the AHL as an insurance measure. Neighbours had been questionable for a previous game but ultimately played.
