I really don’t mind this move at all. 12g 18a 30pts in 72 games last year.

Seems like a decent third liner

Not bad considering it was just a 4th rd pick given up

Don’t know this guy, but looks like a solid player for a 4th round pick.
Might mean Hayes is in play to be traded?

4th round pick for a guy who was a 2nd round pick. 12G 18A in 78 GP for CBJ which to me… smells like he could find some good opportunities with us. Good value imo

Low risk, high reward

4th rounder for him? Not a bad deal
HarwinStrongDick
I feel like 30 pts is right at or above what we could hope a 4th rounder could do for us in 3-4 years. I love this.

Love this move. Low risk and still a lot of potential

CBJ fans are saying hes got all the tools, but had a hard time putting it all together in Columbus. Could be a breakout for him after a change of scenery some stable coaching.

This is a good pickup for you guys as a CBJ fan. He was never given a real chance with us. Still remember his playoff goal in the Tampa sweep like it was yesterday. Kids a stud. Enjoy him.

Texier is solid.

Not bad. Seems about what the Blues hoped to get out of Kapanen at a lower cap hit.

This has potential to be a robbery down the road. If I remember correctly Texier was poised to be a stud. Cbj instability probably stunted his development a bit. Watch out for him to breakout.

We were sexy. But now we’re sexier. Oh wait, Texier. Can’t read.
