St. Louis Blues President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Doug Armstrong announced today that defenseman Torey Krug has been diagnosed with pre-arthritic changes in his left ankle.
This injury stems from a previous bone fracture in his playing career. Krug will undergo non-surgical rehabilitation for 6-8 weeks before re-evaluation to determine if surgery is necessary. If surgery is required, Krug will miss the 2024-25 season. Krug, 33, signed with the Blues in 2020 and posted 39 points last season.
Over his career, he has recorded 483 points in 778 games with Boston and St. Louis.
