Blues' Fabbri out for season with ACL injury
The St. Louis Blues will be without Robby Fabbri for the remainder of the season.
The 21-year-old forward suffered an ACL injury in his left knee and has been ruled out of action until training camp in September.
Fabbri was hit in front of the Blues' bench by Pittsburgh's Carter Rowney on Saturday. He collided with the boards and was unable to leave the ice without assistance.

In 59 games this season, Fabbri had recorded 11 goals and 15 assists, ranking sixth among his teammates with 29 points. His absence is sure to be felt by a Blues club currently sitting outside the playoff picture.
As a result of the injury, St. Louis recalled forwards Kenny Agostino and Magnus Paajarvi from the AHL's Chicago Wolves.
