St. Louis Blues go through an intense practice

I wanted to pass along a note from Post-Dispatch writer Dan O’Neill, who attended the Blues practice today.
O’Neill says that the Blues went through hardworking practice today, with an emphasis on digging the puck out of the corners. T.J. Oshie, David Perron and Patrik Berglund were used as defensemen during the drills, and as logic goes, that was done to make them be more physical and work harder for the puck.
********
Defenseman Eric Brewer has been participating in every drills the past few days, and as someone noted on Blues Talk, Brewer is not wearing the orange no-contact jersey anymore.
As it turns out, that means very little. I asked Brewer about shedding the orange jersey a couple of days ago, and he said that he’s still not ready to play. He joked that teammates were tired of seeing the orange, so he was forced to take it off.
Blues coach Andy Murray said today that Brewer is moving the best he’s seen in a long time.
********
Defenseman Barret Jackman went on the IR on Friday, but it is retroactive to Thursday night’s game. Therefore Jackman must miss at least one more game - Thursday night in Phoenix. He is eligible to play Saturday in Anaheim, but at this point, it’s not known if he’ll be fully healed by then.
