St. Louis Blues forward Alexander Steen will miss at least four weeks with a high ankle sprain, the team announced Thursday.
The 35-year-old Steen was injured on Wednesday versus the Edmonton Oilers. He's been placed on injured reserve and will be re-evaluated in December.
The Blues' forward depth will now be put to the test. Vladimir Tarasenko is already out for at least five months after undergoing shoulder surgery in October.
Steen has posted five assists in 17 games this season.
