Blues defenseman Torey Krug missed his third game of the season on Friday night when he was out vs. Carolina due to an upper-body injury. Krug was hurt initially on Wednesday night against Chicago and did not play the third period against the Blackhawks. Blues interim coach Drew Bannister did not rule Krug out for Sunday afternoon's game against Seattle. “Just out for today, and we'll see how he feels tomorrow and that'll dictate,” Bannister said.
It's not official yet, but it seems certain that the St. Louis Blues are set to miss the playoffs for the second season in a row, which will. For general manager Doug Armstrong, that means that the long-simmering discussion of a rebuild has to move to the front burner on high heat. The Blues cannot afford to wallow in mediocrity for many seasons. Since captain Alex Pietrangelo departed for the Vegas Golden Knights in free agency, the blueline has been — and it's only gotten worse.
