After scoring a goal, adding an assist and logging a plus-3 in the season opener against Columbus last week, Buchnevich missed his second game in a row Saturday afternoon. He was an injury scratch against the Edmonton Oilers due to a lower-body ailment. “We’ll have to re-evaluate it, or hopefully a little rest will help,” coach Craig Berube said. “But that’s too bad.” In terms of practice time, Buchnevich has been on-again/off-again lately. He took part in line rushes and all of Friday’s practice here in Edmonton, leading to some optimism that he’d be available against the Oilers. But he was a no-go. Against Seattle on Wednesday, Berube went with Josh Leivo in Buchnevich’s place. On Saturday at Rogers Place, he decided to go with only 11 forwards but a seventh (or extra) defenseman in Calle Rosen. The 11-7 formula worked like a charm last season — the Blues went 8-4-2 using that alignment in the regular season. And it was successful once again Saturday in a 2-0 Blues victory over the Oilers. As was the case in Seattle, Brayden Schenn moved into Buchnevich’s left wing spot on the Robert Thomas-Vladimir Tarasenko line. [/QUOTE]
