The 29-year-old Suter, in his first season with the Blues, started the 2025-26 campaign scoring at a reasonable pace with nine points (5G / 4A) in his first 14 games, but has been held to just three points (1G / 2A) in his subsequent 11 outings.

Walker had played all but two games for the Blues this season, but will be sidelined for the foreseeable future after suffering an upper-body injury. The 31-year-old Walker was pacing for a career-high point total, with nine points (3G / 6A) through 25 games this season.

The 32-year-old goalie has a 3.11 GAA and .882 SV% in 17 games this season (6-5-5). The Blues enter Monday's contest as -148 home favorites against a Ducks team that will likely be relying on their third-string netminder, Ville Husso, due to injuries.
