ST. LOUIS -- Good morning from the Scottrade Center, where the Bruins will face off against the Blues tonight at 8 p.m. EST.

Marc Savard, out of the lineup since Oct. 17 against Phoenix, will be back in uniform tonight after recovering from a broken left foot. Savard will center the No. 1 line between Marco Sturm and Byron Bitz.

* We should find out later this morning whether Tim Thomas (undisclosed injury) is available to play. If Thomas can't go, Tuukka Rask will make his fourth straight start.

* Should be a battle of the power-play titans. Blues have the league's worst PP (12.7 percent). Bruins have the second-worst (13.2 percent).

* Vladimir Sobotka and Johnny Boychuk are expected to be the healthy scratches.

* Dan Marouelli and Steve Kozari will be the referees. Pierre Champoux and Tim Nowak will be the linesmen.
