Rotowire
Tucker (lower body) is slated to be in the lineup versus the Ducks on Friday.
Tucker was labeled week-to-week March 21 after getting hurt three days before that. He missed six games due to the injury, and he'll take over a third-pairing spot that Justin Holl had been filling.

Rotowire
Tucker scored a goal and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Tucker had five points over 14 contests in January, including a goal and an assist over his last three games.

Blues' Tyler Tucker: Gets on scoresheet with helper
Rotowire
Tucker notched an assist in Friday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Tucker snapped a 19-game point drought when he set up Justin Faulk's second-period tally, which stood as the game-winner. The 25-year-old Tucker has been an occasional scratch this season, but he seems to have a bit more security in the lineup than Logan Mailloux and Matt Kessel. Tucker is at five points, 25 shots on net, 33 hits, 20 blocked shots, 39 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 29 appearances in a bottom-four role.

Blues' Tyler Tucker: Sits for second straight game
Rotowire
Tucker was a healthy scratch for Saturday's 1-0 win over the Mammoth.
This was Tucker's second scratch in a row and his third in the last nine games. The Blues appear more interested in giving Logan Mailloux a longer look on the third pairing for now. Tucker has four points, 21 shots on net, 26 hits, 16 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 23 appearances, but his physical play won't do fantasy managers any good if he continues to sit out. That could happen, as the Blues have won their last two contests and may not be interested in changing what's working.

Blues' Tyler Tucker: Full camp participant
Rotowire
Tucker (lower body) was skating with Colton Parayko during Thursday's training camp session, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.
Tucker was injured back in April and briefly returned during the playoffs before getting hurt again. Pairing with Parayko, if it carries into the regular season, would likely bode well for Tucker's offensive upside, as he figures to pick up an extra assist here and there just being on the ice with the veteran. If Tucker can stay healthy and be an NHL regular, he could put up 20-plus points this year.

Blues' Tyler Tucker: Dealing with long-term injury
Rotowire
According to general manager Doug Armstrong, Tucker (lower body) would have been sidelined for the remainder of the postseason if the Blues had advanced past the first round, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports Tuesday.
Tucker was injured against the Jets in Game 4 of St. Louis' first-round series defeat. The 25-year-old logged one goal, four PIM and 12 hits over three postseason appearances. Armstrong did not provide any information with respect to Tucker's recovery timeline, so it's currently unclear if the left-shot defenseman will be ready for training camp in 2025-26.

Blues' Tyler Tucker: Still not skating
Rotowire
Tucker (lower body) did not skate ahead of Game 6 against the Jets on Friday and figures to remain on the shelf.
Tucker will be on the shelf for his second consecutive contest due to his lingering lower-body injury. Even when healthy, the blueliner is far from a lock to play and may have to watch from the press box as a healthy scratch.

Blues' Tyler Tucker: Suffers injury Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker (lower body) sustained an injury in Sunday's 5-1 win over Winnipeg in Game 4.
The Blues didn't provide an update on Tucker's status after the game, but the team expects to know more Monday.

If Tucker is unavailable for Game 5 in Winnipeg on Wednesday, Ryan Suter or Matt Kessel could be in the lineup against the Jets.

Blues' Tyler Tucker: Grabs shorthanded apple
Rotowire
Tucker logged a shorthanded assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Oilers.
Tucker helped out on Ryan Suter's goal in the first period. This ended a nine-game point drought for Tucker, who continues to play on the third pairing, though he may give way once Colton Parayko (knee) is ready to return. Parayko is targeting a return for one of the final two games of the regular season, but Tucker could stick in the lineup if the Blues opt to rest another blueliner. Tucker is at seven points, 33 shots on net, 79 hits, 38 blocked shots, 55 PIM and a plus-5 rating over 37 outings this season after logging just six points in 52 NHL games over the previous two years combined.

Blues' Tyler Tucker: Tallies pair of points
Rotowire
Tucker scored a goal, distributed an assist and blocked five shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Canucks.
Tucker registered both of his points in 24 seconds. After scoring his goal just over nine minutes into the second period, he picked up a secondary assist on Dylan Holloway's goal moments later. Thursday's points were Tucker's first since he signed a two-year extension with the Blues at the end of February. He is up to six points, 51 hits and 31 blocks in 27 contests this season. The Blues have begun to showcase more trust in Tucker, who set a career high for games in a season with Thursday's appearance. With Colton Parayko out for an extended period of time with a knee injury, Tucker should remain in a third defensive pairing role.

Rotowire
Tucker (upper body) will not play versus Chicago on Saturday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Rotowire
Tucker scored a goal on two shots and added a fighting major penalty in Saturday's 4-2 loss to Utah.
Tucker opened the scoring 2:05 into the game and then fought Liam O'Brien right after the ensuing faceoff. The 24-year-old Tucker has two goals and two assists over his last five games, a rare stretch of productive offense for the third-pairing blueliner. That's all of his offense this season to go with 13 shots on net, 24 hits, eight blocked shots and 21 PIM over 13 appearances.

Blues' Tyler Tucker: Sets up game-winner Tuesday
Rotowire
Tucker recorded an even-strength helper and went plus-1 in 13:36 of ice time Tuesday in a 2-1 win over the Flames.

Blues' Tyler Tucker: Finds twine in win
Rotowire
Tucker scored a goal on two shots, doled out five hits and added two PIM in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Ducks.
The goal was Tucker's first point in nine outings at the NHL level this season. The 24-year-old defenseman has added seven shots on net, 16 PIM, 17 hits and a plus-2 rating while taking on third-pairing minutes in the ongoing absence of Nick Leddy (lower body). Once Tucker plays in one more game, he will have to pass through waivers if the Blues opt to send him back to AHL Springfield. His lack of offense makes him a non-factor in most fantasy formats.
