The Chicago Blackhawks will be without Artem Anisimov for the remainder of Saturday’s game against the rival St. Louis Blues.

Anisimov left the game after the first period and didn’t return with an unspecified injury.

That could be a tough loss for the Blackhawks, as they look to maintain their lead in the Central Division standings.

In 31 games this season, Anisimov had 14 goals and 27 points.
