St-Louis Blues news,
It is now official: Robert Holik has only 48 hours left as a member of the Saint-Louis Blues franchise, and he'll simply go to the team that offers the most at the end of the 48h deadline. His fat 9M$ per year salary will have to leave and the Blues are even willing to send a 5M$ cheque with him.
"Robert Holik is DONE in St-Louis. We just can't afford to have an 9M$ playing on our checking line and taking young players' ice time. We'll take whatever we can get for him so we can take his case on the side and start focusing on the Entry draft that will take place this weekend." - St-Louis Blues GM, Fred Younan.
Also avaible are veteran wingers Brian Savage & Mikael Samuelsson and d-men Eric Weinrich & Murray Baron. They will go for praticaly nothing (like for exemple: a late pick).
