Leddy, Ryan Suter and Justin Faulk are all possibilities to be traded if the Blues think they're out of the playoff mix.

St. Louis Blues defenseman Nick Leddy will make his long-awaited return to the lineup Tuesday versus the Edmonton Oilers. Sidelined since mid-October due to a lower-body injury, Leddy has made just four appearances on the season in which he has posted a minus-three rating while averaging 22:09 in ice time.
