Blues' Oskar Sundqvist: Activated off IR

Sundqvist (lower body) has been removed from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's clash with Utah, per the NHL media site.

Sundqvist started practicing with the team Monday and appears to be good to go after missing the Blues' first six games of the year. With the veteran center back in action, he figures to fill a bottom-six role, which will likely relegate Alexandre Texier to a spot in the press box as a healthy scratch.
