As more players end up on the injured reserve for the Blues, it was the return of one of those walking wounded that was the story of the game against the Winnipeg Jets. Carter Hutton returned to the crease 15 days after taking a Scottie Upshall shot off the foot and landing on the IR. Hutton wasted little time showing fans that he was back in form.
Hutton’s teammates took some pressure off of him early on as the Blues controlled play to start the game and were rewarded with two power plays.
