Player to watch vs. Ducks: Oskar Sundqvist
USA TODAY Sports

My player to watch for the St. Louis Blues against the Anaheim Ducks on Sunday is forward Oskar Sundqvist.

A lot of this depends on how the Blues line up against the Ducks tonight. After a 5-1 loss against the Los Angeles Kings on Sunday, coach Craig Berube is likely to switch things up with his lineup tonight.

That could include implementing 11 forwards and seven defensemen for the game, and if that's the case, Sundqvist could be rolling out with different linemates for the game.

Sammy Blais, who assisted on Jake Neighbours' late third-period goal, got a little dinged up in the game Saturday and depending on his availability, it could affect how the Blues lineup in this game.

Sundqvist's line on Saturday continued to play hard despite the game being well out of reach in the third period, and he has seven points (three goals, four assists) in 13 career games against the Ducks, and with the Blues' top guys slumbering offensively these past two games, he could be another unlikely source to provide some much-needed offense.
