The St. Louis Blues will be without Paul Stastny for a while.
The club announced today that the 29-year-old center has been placed on injured reserve with a broken right foot, an injury he suffered in Friday’s game in Vancouver. Stastny missed the Blues’ next two games in Winnipeg and Montreal.
Stastny will be re-evaluated in five weeks. He had one goal and four assists in his first five games, skating mostly on a line with Alex Steen and Vladimir Tarasenko.
Jori Lehtera was in Stastny’s spot last night in Montreal. The Blues lost to the Habs, 3-0.
#stlblues lines tonight: Steen - Lehtera - Tarasenko; Schwartz - Backes - Brouwer; Jaskin - Gomez - Upshall; Ott - Brodziak - Reaves
