Bernard-Docker has split his 2022-23 season between the AHL and NHL, picking up just one assist in nine NHL games so far. With Artem Zub out with a lower-body injury, Bernard-Docker is expected to skate next to Thomas Chabot on the top pair in St. Louis on Monday.

Kane has missed the Blackhawks' previous two games and will not return to the lineup Thursday vs. Colorado as he deals with a lower-body injury.

Talbot allowed five goals on 19 shots (.737 SV%) and was pulled after just two periods of action in his previous start, picking up his second straight loss in a defeat to Seattle. The 35-year-old has struggled in his first season in Ottawa, with a 10-10-1 record, 2.89 GAA and .906 SV%. He takes on the Nashville Predators, who are on a bit of a hot streak, winning three straight and four of their last five games.
Soderblom has five goals, three assists, 30 SOG and eight PIMs through 20 games but will be a healthy scratch Friday as Detroit takes on Florida. Adam Erne will be replacing him in the lineup.
Kane left Chicago's previous contest vs. Tampa Bay after just 13 shifts and 12:57 TOI due to an undisclosed injury and will sit out Friday as well. Kane has stated it is not a bad injury, just a lingering one, which is good news as the 34-year-old is leading the Blackhawks in both points (27) and assists (20) this season.
Gibson allowed four goals on 33 shots (.879 SV%) for his fourth loss in five starts as he was defeated by Philadelphia in his previous start.

He faces the Dallas Stars, who just snapped a four-game winning streak with a 3-2 loss to Los Angeles in their previous game.
