(AP) -- St. Louis Blues forward Andy McDonald has been
activated from the injured list after missing 24 games with a
concussion.

The Blues announced the move Wednesday and McDonald is expected
to play Friday at home against the Edmonton Oilers. The 33-year-old
has eight goals and nine assists in 25 games.

He was injured Dec. 4 in Edmonton. The Blues still are without
forward David Perron, who sustained a concussion in early November.

The Blues assigned rookie forward Philip McRae to Peoria of the
AHL.
