Fabbri underwent knee surgery after suffering an ACL injury last February and will have to have another surgery after re-injuring the knee in training camp. Fabbri was reportedly told that he had a 3% chance of re-injury and unfortunately the young forward fell into that percentage. With Fabbri out for the season, the Blues have discussed signing Jaromir Jagr.
Fabbri is coming off of a knee ligament injury in February and re-injured the surgically repaired knee in training camp. Fabbri was a late scratch prior to the Blues’ first preseason game and will miss the rest of the preseason. Fabbri was expected to get a look at centre, but with him joining Alex Steen and Patrik Berglund on the sideline, that leaves the Blues with Paul Stastny, Brayden Schenn, Wade Megan and Kyle Brodziak as their centre options.
Krug took a puck to the mouth in the Bruins’ preseason win on Tuesday night. Krug will likely miss at least the first three games of the regular season. He will be re-evaluated in three weeks and a new update is expected to be released.
Fowler has been a part of trade rumours for years but we can put those to bed after inking an eight-year pact with the Ducks. In 2016-17, Fowler set a career-high with 11 goals and 39 points in 80 games. Fowler has No.1 fantasy defenseman upside, but should be selected as a No.2.
Sundqvist, 22, has 40 points (17G / 23A) in 55 games with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton this season. He has yet to record a point in for NHL games, but has four points (1G / 3A) in 22 career NHL games.
Parayko missed Saturday’s game vs. the Islanders, but will return tonight in Los Angeles. Parayko has registered 30 points (4G / 26A) in 66 games this season and should be active in all formats.
Parayko left last night’s game with an undisclosed injury and did not return. Parayko left after playing 13:31 and should be considered a game-time decision for tonight’s game.
Buchnevich went down for one game and scored two goals, so he comes back with Jesper Fast out for a few weeks. He could draw into the lineup in Boston on Thursday.
