WASHINGTON, D.C. - Blues forward Oskar Sundqvist left Sunday's final preseason game with an upper-body injury in the second period.
Sundqvist was hit in open ice by Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson, who was ejected from the game after receiving a five-minute major penalty for delivering a check to the head.

Sundqvist did not return to the game.
"He's definitely hurt," Blues Head Coach Mike Yeo said. "Obviously he hasn't seen a doctor yet, but I'd be surprised if he didn't miss a decent amount of time here... there are a couple of upper-body injuries. He's in a bad spot right now, I feel bad for him."
