Joseph exited Saturday's game due to an upper-body injury and did not play on Sunday. The 25-year-old Joseph is averaging 15:16 time-on-ice and has three points (0G / 3A) in 47 games this season.

Joseph will take a seat on Thursday in favour of Ryan Graves. Joseph has zero goals and three assists this season in 46 games split between the Blues and Penguins.

Joseph returns to Pittsburgh where he spent the first four seasons of his career after just 23 games in St. Louis. Joseph failed to score as a Blue and has just two assists to his name on the season. He should see more consistent playing time for the Penguins after struggling to maintain a spot in the Blues lineup.

Scott Perunovich will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday against the Vancouver Canucks, allowing Joseph to re-enter the lineup. The 25-year-old Joseph is averaging 13:31 time-on-ice through 20 games this season, recording two points (0G / 2A), 12 blocks, and 10 hits.

Joseph has been sidelined the past three games but will draw back into the lineup on Thursday, replacing Matthew Kessel. The 25-year-old Joseph is averaging 13:48 time-on-ice and has one point (0G / 1A), 10 blocks, and seven hits in 13 games.

Joseph suffered the injury early in the second period and was unable to return. We should receive an update on his status ahead of the Blues' game in Boston on Saturday.

Joseph played six straight games for the Blues but will be a healthy scratch on Thursday after recording a -4 plus/minus in his last outing, an 8-1 loss to the Ottawa Senators. Scott Perunovich will draw into the lineup as Joseph's replacement.

Nick Leddy is battling a lower-body injury and will not play on Thursday, allowing Joseph to re-enter the lineup. In his only game this season, Joseph recorded a -1 plus/minus in 12:39 time-on-ice.

Joseph will make his Blues debut in Vegas on Friday after sitting out the first two games of the season. The 25-year-old blue-liner spent the first four seasons of his career in Pittsburgh, totaling eight goals and 29 assists across 147 regular season games.

Joseph will join his brother in St. Louis who was acquired in an earlier deal on Tuesday after the defensemen signed a one-year $950,000 contract with the Blues. The 25-year-old defenseman had spent the first four seasons of his career in Pittsburgh and had two goals, 11 points and 14 PIMs in 52 games played in 2023-24.

Joseph will be the odd-man out on Thursday as the Penguins opt to go back to dressing just six defensemen. Joseph has no goals and three assists in 22 games this season.
