What happened to Torey Krug? Blues D-man "not expected to play again" per GM

  • Torey Krug, a defenseman for the St. Louis Blues, is expected to end his playing career after missing the entire 2024-25 season due to a serious ankle injury.
  • Krug's injury, linked to arthritis and requiring invasive surgery, originated during the 2018 playoffs while he played for the Boston Bruins.
  • Krug agreed to a seven-year contract worth an average of $6.5 million per year with the Blues in 2020, but he has been sidelined since April 10, 2024, the date he scored a decisive game-winning goal.
  • Blues GM Doug Armstrong said he does not expect Krug to return to NHL play and noted the player is only managing near-normal daily living with his leg and ankle.
  • Krug will likely remain on long-term injury reserve through his contract expiration in 2027, and the Blues may consider replacing him due to his uncertain playing future.
