The St. Louis Blues place defensemen Logan Mailloux and Tyler Tucker on injured reserve to start the 2026-27 NHL season. Mailloux is dealing with a hand injury, while Tucker has a lower-body injury. Both moves are part of the team’s roster decisions ahead of the season opener.
Sources also differ slightly on the expected timeline. NDTV reports that Mailloux is expected to be out for approximately eight weeks, with his status subject to re-evaluation after that period. NDTV also describes Tucker’s availability as week-to-week. Yahoo Sports focuses on the IR placement and the general injury descriptions but does not specify a length of absence.
