Never question Alex Steen's commitment to the cause.

After the St. Louis Blues were eliminated by the Nashville Predators on Sunday, the series over in six games, Steen revealed that he was playing on a broken foot suffered in Game 1 of the first round against the Minnesota Wild, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch's Jeremy Rutherford.

Steen missed Game 5 of the Predators series when his "foot was further broken" after he blocked a shot in Game 4. Sounds painful. And yet, he played 17:12 in Game 6, including 2:35 shorthanded.

The 33-year-old's postseason ends after 10 games, in which he scored three goals and added four assists.
