Coming off of a two-goal game against the Arizona Coyotes, Pavel Buchnevich will center a line with newcomers Jakub Vrana and Kasperi Kapanen Thursday night against the San Jose Sharks (7 p.m., BSMW, 101 ESPN). Buchnevich has been on a hot streak recently-- reaching 20 goals in his last game, marking his third consecutive season in doing so.
"A guy [Buchnevich] with his brains and his play-making ability, seeing the ice," Blues Head Coach Craig Berube said recently. "There's good potential there down the middle of the ice."
