Stars trade former first-round pick to the St. Louis Blues
St. Louis Blues General Manager Doug Armstrong was busy adding to his forward group on Tuesday, making a pair of trades in the last hour.
First, he added forward Mathieu Joseph and a draft pick in a trade with the Ottawa Senators in exchange for future considerations. Now, he's bringing in a former first-round pick.
The St. Louis Blues have announced that they've acquired forward Radek Faksa from the Dallas Stars in exchange for future considerations.
"TRADE ALERT: The Blues have acquired Radek Faksa from the Dallas Stars. #stlblues"
Faksa, 30, was selected 13th overall by Dallas in 2012 and has spent 11 years in the Stars organization. In 74 games this season, Faksa had 19 points (seven goals, 12 assists), 20 penalty minutes and had an even-rating. He went on to add one goal and two penalty minutes in eight games during the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
