Blues' Dylan Holloway: Ready to play
Rotowire
Holloway (neck) told reporters he would be in action versus Utah on Thursday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
Holloway was hoping to play in Thursday's contest but needed to get final medical clearance before sitting up against Utah. Where the winger fits into the lineup will likely depend on the health of Kasperi Kapanen, who is hoping to return from an upper-body injury. For his part, Holloway needs just four more points to set a new personal best after starting the year with four goals and two assists in 13 contests.

Blues' Dylan Holloway: Finds back of net again
Rotowire
Holloway scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 8-1 loss to the Senators.
The 23-year-old spoiled a shutout bid for Linus Ullmark in the third period. Holloway has scored three goals, two with the man advantage, in three games since Robert Thomas (ankle) was injured, and the former Oiler could be building a case for a more prominent spot on the depth chart even when the Blues' roster is at full strength.
