Colton Parayko will be out at least six weeks after the St. Louis Blues defenseman injured his left knee in a 3-2 win against the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday.

He leads all Blues players with an average ice time per game of 23:51, including playing 23:13 on Wednesday.

He has 294 points (76 goals, 218 assists) in 721 regular-season NHL games, all with the Blues, and 32 points (10 goals, 22 assists) in 82 Stanley Cup Playoff game, including 12 points (two goals, 10 assists) in 2019 when the Blues won the Cup.

The Blues (30-27-6), who are 6-1-1 in their past eight games, are one point behind the Calgary Flames for the second wild card into the playoffs from the Western Conference.
