Blues' Nail Yakupov: Still sidelined
Yakupov (undisclosed) will not be available for Game 2 against the Predators on Friday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
Analysis:
Yakupov will miss his 12th straight contest with this ailment and has yet to join his teammates for practice. The Blues have provided very little information on the first-round pick, which isn't surprising considering he was used infrequently since being brought in via trade. Even once cleared, the pending free agent may keep watching from the press box.
