Bouw's back: Jay Bouwmeester will be in Blues lineup tonight

ST. LOUIS -- After missing the Blues' last four games, defenseman Jay Bouwmeester will return to their lineup in tonight's game against Pittsburgh at Scottrade Center.

Bouwmeester has missed St. Louis' last four games with an upper-body injury he suffered Jan. 8 at Anaheim on a hard hit by Ryan Getzlaf.

On Sunday, the Blues recalled defenseman Andre Benoit from the Chicago Wolves, their American Hockey League affiliate. Benoit, 32, has 25 points (including a team-high 21 assists) in 37 games with the Wolves this season. He has played in 179 NHL regular-season games for Buffalo, Colorado and Ottawa.
