St. Louis never plays a game in St. Louis
Even though he was part of the Blues organization for over a week, Martin St. Louis never played a game for the city that shares the same name, although he apparently really wanted to.
"Traded again?! This is getting ridiculous! I was really looking forward to being the best player on the Blues. At least I'm going somewhere that wants me." Stated MSL.
To Cgy:
-Martin St. Louis RW/LW, 37y 74ov
-Cash
To St.L:
-Chris Kunitz LW, 32y 68ov
-Michael St. Croix RW, 19y ECHL
-2014 1st (Cal)
-2013 2nd (Owed - top 20)
-2013 3rd (Ott)
Kunitz is expected to jump into the lineup immediately which will be nice to not have to wait for St.Louis a few more days. While I was hoping for a bigger fish than Kunitz, I think he'll continue putting up good points with Pittsburgh and we get a 1st next year, a good prospect and a couple decent picks this year. Not ideal but a lot more than I feel I gave up for him and am happy with the return.
Thanks to Cheese for the talks and good luck to St.Louis playing alongside another ex-Blue who's on fire, Elias.
