Was the Pietrangelo deal good for the St. Louis Blues? by Sean Jeffries

The St. Louis Blues were rumored to be looking to add Brenden Morrow to the team last season through trade, but the rumors never cam to fruition.

This morning, the St. Louis Blues have put an end to speculation of their interest and signed Brenden Morrow to a one year deal worth $1.5 million per season.

While the Blues depth chart seemed like it couldn’t get any deeper, GM Doug Armstrong has just added another roster player that may make it impossible for the likes of Adam Cracknell to make the Blues starting roster out of camp.

It has been a busy offseason for the Blues and adding Morrow is possibly the last addition for team. What do you think, Blues fans? Where does Morrow fit into the lineup? Is this a move to allow the Blues to trade one of their core players? Let us know in the comments below or chime in on Facebook.

More as we have it.

LET’S GO BLUES!
