Mathieu Joseph will be a healthy scratch on Wednesday, allowing Berggren to re-enter the lineup against the Colorado Avalanche. Berggren had four points (2G / 2A) in his first three games with the Blues, but saw his ice-time dip in his next two, recording zero points and a -2 plus/minus rating.

The 25-year-old forward had six points (2G / 4A) in 15 games this season and hopes to solidify himself as a full-time NHLer with the Blues.
