Sanderson (lower body) is not expected to be an option for Tuesday's home matchup against the Blues, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.

Head coach Travis Green said after Monday's 4-1 win over New Jersey that he doesn't think Sanderson or Artem Zub (knee) will be available Tuesday, but he hopes to see the defensemen in the lineup soon. Sanderson will almost certainly slot in on the top pairing and on the No. 1 power-play unit once he moves past his injury.
