Blues' Weight sidelined with ankle injury
St. Louis, MO (Sports Network) - St. Louis Blues center Doug Weight underwent an MRI on his left ankle Monday and the results were negative. Weight was diagnosed with a deep bone bruise in the ankle and will be sidelined seven to 10 days.

He suffered the injury when he was hit by a shot from Vancouver's Ed Jovanovski during the third period of Sunday's NHL All-Star Game.

In 53 games this season, Weight has tallied 11 goals and a team-high 44 assists.

Meanwhile, the club recalled defenseman Christian Backman and forward Eric Nickulas from the Worcester IceCats of the American Hockey League.
