Blues Acquired Justin Faulk From The Hurricanes

The St. Louis Blues acquired Justin Faulk from the Carolina Hurricanes. 

 The Blues will get defenseman Joel Edmundson as well as a 5th-round pick in the 2020 NHL Draft. 

"We are excited to add Justin to our core group for the next eight years, he’s a top-four defenseman who averages over 23 minutes a game and we are confident he will be a strong addition to our club.” - Doug Armstrong Blues general manager 

Faulk has a new deal with the St. Louis Blues for 7-years for $45.5 million. This gives the defenseman an average salary of $6.5 million per season.

The 2019 Stanley Cup winner believes they have the team in place to possibly win it all in the 2020 season.
