7 NHL scouts from Eastern teams scouted Avalanche and Blues game
The 7-3 outcome may not have been what the NHL scouts had in mind when they made the trip to St. Louis to scout the Colorado Avalanche and St. Louis Blues.
The seven NHL scouts were all from Eastern conference teams as reported by Adrian Dater of the Denver Post were the New York Rangers, Columbus Blue Jackets, Carolina Hurricanes, Pittsburgh Penguins, Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadiens and Tampa Bay Lightning.
It's possible all scouts are trying to cash in on the young talent on the Avalanche, and look at the NHL veteran Alex Steen who is having a breakout season for the Blues. As Adrian Dator said, let the trade rumors begin.
