The Sports Xchange reports the line of Lee Stempniak, Andy McDonald and Brad Boyes could be without one of its parts for a couple of games. Stempniak missed Saturday's game against the New York Islanders with a "tweaked" left knee, the result of an awkward hit from a Nashville player Friday in St. Louis. The Blues aren't sure if Stempniak will be available for Monday's game in Toronto. They're calling him day-to-day, but his knee remained stiff Saturday. "I was getting the puck and just sort of got hit," Stempniak said. "Just a fluky thing. It wasn't a hard hit, just a vulnerable position."
