Tonight the St. Louis Blues have lost yet another defenseman as Philip Broberg has left tonight's game with a potentially serious lower-body injury.

In a game cross-conference game against the Toronto Maple Leafs the St. Louis Blues were looking to continue their strong start to the season. Midway through the second period disaster struck after St. Louis Blues defenseman Philip Broberg fell awkwardly after a hit from Maple Leafs forward Mitch Marner.

After the hit, Philip Broberg was helped off the ice by the St. Louis Blues training staff and into the locker room. A short time later a report from NHL insider Elliotte Friedman confirmed that Philip Broberg would not be returning to the game for the Blues.

This is a huge loss for the St. Louis Blues as Philip Broberg has been excellent this season. After signing with the Blues along with fellow restricted free agent Dylan Holloway this offseason from the Edmonton Oilers Philip Broberg has blossomed into a star. Through 11 games this season, Philip Broberg had tallied 9 points. Despite losing Philip Broberg the Blues are ahead in the game thanks to a pair of goals from fellow defenseman Colton Parayko.

Hopefully, the injury is not as serious as it looks and Philip Broberg is able to return to the Blues lineup sooner rather than later. At the moment the St. Louis Blues have only confirmed that Philip Broberg will not return tonight. Beyond that, there is still mystery around how long Philip Broberg will be out as more tests will likely commence in the coming days. With him out of the lineup, others like Colton Parayko will need to continue stepping up in the next few games.

As more information is provided from the Blues and other trusted sources on Philip Broberg's injury and potential return we will pass along the latest details to you.
