Going to Montreal are goalie Ryan Miller, defenceman Braydon Coburn and spare winger Sergei Samsanov. Coming back to St Louis are Evgeni Nabakov, Brooks Orpik and winger David Booth.

Both teams needed a shake up and I know I needed a bit more up front in order to compete. Booth is a 77sc and will help put a few more pucks in the back of the net.

Loosing Coburn was tough, but Orpiks 81Df is nothing to sneeze at. The Miller for Nabakov swap is pretty straight forward other then age and salaries...I'm hoping this move gets the Blues out of the doldrums we've been in and refreshes the roster, allowing us to compete this season.
