O'Reilly had not missed a single game since joining the Blues in a trade in the summer of 2018. His consecutive games streak had reached 214 games before he was placed on the non-roster COVID-19 list on Oct. 26.
Without O'Reilly, the Blues went 2-1-1 and maintained first place in the Western Conference. The team is currently without Torey Krug, Kyle Clifford and Ville Husso, who are all in COVID-19 protocols.
"Our depth is being tested, but the guys are rewarding their teammates with really solid play," Armstrong added.
