ST. LOUIS — St. Louis Blues defenseman Torey Krug is set to have ankle surgery and is expected to miss the 2024-25 season. President and general manager Doug Armstrong announced the prognosis Tuesday. Krug was diagnosed earlier this summer with pre-arthritic changes in his left ankle. The team said at the time he would attempt to rehab the injury for six to eight weeks before resorting to season-ending surgery. Now 33, Krug initially injured the ankle in 2018 during a preseason game while playing for Boston.
