Philip Broberg Out 4-6 Weeks with Leg Injury

St. Louis Blues defenseman Philip Broberg is expected to be sidelined for four to six weeks due to a right leg injury sustained during a game against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Broberg, a recent acquisition from the Edmonton Oilers, has been a key player for the Blues, tallying nine points in 11 games. The injury occurred when Mitch Marner of the Maple Leafs landed on Broberg's leg, leading to his early departure from the game. Coach Drew Bannister expressed relief that the injury was not more severe, emphasizing the importance of team effort in overcoming the loss of several injured players, including Robert Thomas and Torey Krug. Broberg's absence is a significant blow to the Blues, who are already dealing with multiple injuries among their ranks. Scott Perunovich is expected to fill in for Broberg during his recovery period.
