St Louis shakeup
St Louis Dispatch Time Picayuune(AP) - While its early in the season and the Blues are 0-1-1 after twin 3-2 losses where they outshout their opponents. Blue's GM CaptainCrunch thrust his toe into the trade market for the first time in a long time. The trade sends stud dman Charlie McAvoy to the Sharks. The trade literally looks like this.
McAvoy - 76OV
Krejci - 71OV
Ferraro - 70OV
Total $15.75mill
FOR
Hamilton - 77OV
Janmark - 71OV
Jensen - 70OV
Poolman - 67OV
Matthew Highmore (AHL) or Equivalent young player
Total: $16.36
With this deal the Blues bring in the top rated defenseman in the NHL, as well as replacing Krecji who plans to retire at the end of this year, and bringing in a more veteran defenseman to allow Dylan Coghlan more time to develop on the farm.
"I wasn't happy with our depth, so this deal should help." Crunch said when reached for comment. While we played fairly well in the first couple of games, at the end of the day its about wins. Hamilton and the other players makes us a bit deeper."
