Torey Krug of the St. Louis Blues will miss the season due to ankle surgery. His injury stems from past fractures and pre-arthritic changes. Despite recent setbacks, he expressed commitment to the team and community.

Last season, Krug contributed 39 points over 77 games but has faced multiple injuries since joining the Blues. With the arrival of new defensemen, the team hopes for a strong start against the Seattle Kraken.
