Brouwer did not participate in Monday's practice due to an undisclosed reason, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brouwer's absence may be innocuous as the right winger missed several recent practices with what the team referred to as maintenance days. He was the only member of the Blues to play in all 82 games, suggesting the undisclosed issue did not prevent him from playing in games. St. Louis will host Game 1 of their first-round playoff series against Chicago on Wednesday.
