Looks like McDonald is ready to return Tuesday. #stlblues
McDonald hasn't played since February 23rd because of a knee injury. He has been injury prone throughout his career, so while he is a good player he is always an injury risk. He has 11 points in 18 games this season.

Hitch said McDonald & Tarasenko will be evaluated in the morning to see where they are, leaving the door open for possible return Saturday.
McDonald missed the Blues last nine games with a knee injury. He has had a hard time staying healthy in his career so there is no surprise he is having another injury plagued season. It sounds like he could return tomorrow, but we won't know until after tomorrow's morning skate at the earliest.

The Blues have home games Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday of this week so it sounds like McDonald will be back soon.
