40#1Fan 0 Report post Posted September 29, 2008 http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/sports/st...BD?OpenDocument Blues defenseman Jeff Woywitka has a cracked bone in his right foot and will miss four to six weeks, according to the team. Woywitka suffered the injury while blocking a shot in Friday's 9-4 victory over Atlanta at Scottrade Center. He becomes the third Blues' defensemen to be injured during the preseason, leaving a huge void less than two weeks before the start of the season. The club already has lost defenseman Erik Johnson (knee) for the entire 2008-09 season and defenseman Jonas Junland (shoulder) for a couple of weeks. Woywitka scored two goals and had eight points in 27 games with the Blues last season. Before he suffered the injury, Woywitka was expected to make the team's opening-day roster.

Uncle Danny 155 Report post Posted September 29, 2008 Yikes. I'd hate to be a Blues fan. This poor team can't catch a break in recent years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
