Blues are happy to add a 68ov forward under 30. He's the perfect type of player we were looking for on the 2nd line and should fit in well with Elias and whoever else will be there by the start of the season.

While we are less happy to give up Trouba. We think he's a couple years away from making an impact in the NHL and thus 3-4 years from the CPHL. Going to be a great defender nonetheless.

Blues are likely still going to be busy on the trade front as it has become quite apparent they are looking for 2nd line upgrades all around.

Thanks to Hesla for the quick and efficient talks!
