Blues' Stastny 'dodged a bullet' with facial injury
by from on (#10ETH)
Paul Stastny won't be back in the St. Louis Blues' lineup Tuesday night, but there was good news pertaining to his condition at the morning skate.
Head coach Ken Hitchcock said Stastny "dodged a bullet" with his facial injury, avoiding a displaced fracture after being hit in the face with a puck Friday night.
Stastny: "Every day's gotten a little better. Still like a little foggy, just little things in my head here and there." #stlblues

Stastny wore a full cage at practice and is considered day to day.
Hitchcock indicated the forward would be available Thursday versus Carolina.
