As much as the Blues liked having Bob Lang around...$7.5 million was pretty steep for a 35 year old center on the downside of his career. York makes us younger, and cheaper, and can play both wing and center which is a nice option to have. Wishart is a big kid who's not affraid of the body and is sound defensivly. And Cracknell...well it was either him or a 4th...we figured he'd be a tad closer to the NHL then a 4th in 08. The team is eagerly awaiting sunday night when the new look Blues step onto the ice against the Rangers.<br>
