The Wild doesn't have a trade-deadline acquisition to debut Tuesday, but it will roll out a different lineup than the one that's been used recently.
Defenseman Jonas Brodin is ready to return against the Blues after missing the previous nine games to recover from surgery to fix his fractured left hand. Forward Luke Kunin was also recalled from Iowa, along with defenseman Nick Seeler (although Seeler's "demotion" Monday was a paper move).

"I've been out for a while, so I'm really excited for tonight and to start playing again," Brodin said.
Brodin was injured Feb. 6 when the Wild visited the Blues, getting jammed up along the boards. Immediately, he knew he was hurt but he actually thought it was wrist that was in trouble and not his hand.
"Then when I came to the bench, I saw the hand was pretty swollen," Brodin said. "I couldn't even move it."
During the nine games he was out, the Wild went 6-1-2 – a solid showing that included steady play by the blue line. While Brodin healed up, defenseman Nick Seeler debuted and he's poised to remain in the mix after the team traded Mike Reilly to the Canadiens Monday ahead of the deadline.
"He certainly so far has exceeded my expectations," coach Bruce Boudreau said of Seeler. "I said to him today, I said, 'Now that you're here, you going to still be good?' He said, 'Don't worry Coach. I'll be trying as hard as I can.' That's all you want him to do. That's all you can ask him to do."
The Wild held an optional skate Tuesday, so it's unclear where Brodin could slot in the top-six against the Blues. Regardless, though, having him back on the ice is certainly a boost for the Wild.
