MacInnis’ Game 3 Status Is Unclear
- Share via
St. Louis Blues captain Al MacInnis has an upper body injury and his status is unclear for Game 3 of the first-round Western Conference playoff series against the Vancouver Canucks tonight.
The series is tied, 1-1.
The 39-year-old defenseman took a hit from 245-pound forward Todd Bertuzzi during a Vancouver power play two minutes into the first period Saturday.
MacInnis appeared to hurt his right shoulder and didn’t return. He will be re-evaluated today.
MacInnis, who leads the Blues in minutes played this season, has 68 points on 16 goals and 52 assists. He is a key to the Blue power-play and penalty-killing unit.
