In the penultimate preseason game, the Blues will use a lineup that will closely resemble the one they use in a week for opening night.

Of the expected regulars, only Jake Neighbours and Alexey Toropchenko will not play on Thursday against the Senators. That includes all three defensive pairings and Jordan Binnington playing a full 60 mintues in goal.

The Blues enter Thursday 0-3-1 in the preseason, one of just two NHL teams that have not won an exhibition game. Utah is the other one.

Blues projected lineup vs. Ottawa on Thursday, 7 p.m.

Pavel Buchnevich - Robert Thomas - Jimmy Snuggerud

Dylan Holloway - Pius Suter - Jordan Kyrou

Mathieu Joseph - Brayden Schenn - Nick Bjugstad

Milan Lucic - Oskar Sundqvist - Nathan Walker

Cam Fowler - Colton Parayko

Philip Broberg - Justin Faulk
