After missing the first three games of the season, Saad has been activated from Injured Reserve. At practice on Monday, Saad was skating on the Blues' top line alongside Robert Thomas and Jake Neighbours. In a parallel move, Alexandre Texier (upper-body) was placed on IR to make room for Saad.

Saad is expected to miss the Blues' first road trip of the season as he awaits the birth of his third child and has been placed on the Injured/Non-Roster list to begin 2024-25. The Blues will hope to have their veteran 31-year-old left-winger back soon after he finished 2023-24 fourth in team goals (26) and fifth in points (42).

Saad and his wife are expecting their third child right around the time of the Blues' first road trip of the season. In Monday's practice, he skated on the "fifth line," an indication that the Blues are preparing to be without the veteran winger when their season starts on October 8th. While Saad is out, Zack Bolduc is expected to skate in the top-6, and his strong preseason could make Saad more of a bottom-6 option this season.

Saad has missed the Blues' last four games due to an upper-body injury but will return to the lineup Thursday vs. Vancouver. The 30-year-old left-winger has 15 goals, seven assists, 86 SOG, and a -9 plus/minus through 46 games prior to the injury.
