Saros is expected to protect the home net against St. Louis on Saturday, according to Nick Kieser of Lower Broad Hockey.

Saros was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, setting him up to make his third straight start. He is coming off a 30-save effort in Thursday's 3-2 shootout loss to San Jose. Saros has a 2-2-2 record this season and has allowed 18 goals on 188 shots. St. Louis (3-3-1) ranks eighth in the league with 3.57 goals per game this campaign.
