St. Louis Blues forward Jordan Kyrou is a game-time decision to return to the lineup Tuesday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Kyrou has missed the past two games after sustaining an upper-body injury during St. Louis' 5-1 win over the Vancouver Canucks on Dec. 19. He recorded his first career hat-trick and also picked up an assist prior to the injury.
The 24-year-old Kyrou, who leads the Blues with 16 goals and 32 points in 31 games this season, skated at practice Tuesday but did not participate in the line rushes.
"He'll be a game-time decision," Blues head coach Craig Berube said according to NHL.com. "He looked good out there, he felt good. So we'll see later."
Kyrou had a breakout campaign in 2021-22 setting career highs with 27 goals and 48 assists for 75 points.
Earlier Tuesday, the Blues placed defenceman Torrey Krug on injured reserve due to a lower-body injury.
