Mikael Granlund set to return this weekend

Mikael Granlund is projected to return to Houston's lineup this weekend from his ankle injury.

He has missed the past 12 games with a sprained ankle, but the Aeros have been able to hold the fort without him and Jonas Brodin (broken clavicle) by posting a solid 7-3-2 record. Granlund had 12 points in eight AHL contests prior to getting hurt.

Alex Steen ends marathon OT to lift Blues

Alexander Steen's goal 26 seconds into the third overtime period gave the Blues a 4-3 win over Chicago in Game 1 of their first round playoff series Thursday night.

Steen knocked a nifty little pass from Steve Ott into the back of the net soon after the third extra frame began and sent the Blues fans home happy. Adam Cracknell, Vladimir Tarasenko and Jaden Schwartz also scored for St. Louis in the thrilling victory. If the rest of the series is as exciting as this game, it could lead to widespread heart attacks for fans of both teams.

Lightning mum on Ondrej Palat's injury

Ondrej Palat was forced to leave Tampa Bay's playoff opener in the third period with an undisclosed injury.

He was seen walking around the locker room after the team's overtime loss and there wasn't an update on his status. Palat had an upper-body injury at the end of the regular season after a hard hit made contact with his head and there may have been a re-injury there. It was also speculated during the game telecast that he might have been hurt when he banged knees with Montreal's P.K. Subban. Consider him day-to-day for now.
