Alex Pietrangelo expects to hit open market

Tonight may be the last night that Alex Pietrangelo is a St. Louis Blue. The long back and forth between the captain and general manager Doug Armstrong that began last off-season is wrapping up - the salary cap is stagnant, and Petro is in for a raise. Armstrong would have to shuffle pieces off in trades to hold on to the first Blue to ever touch the Stanley Cup.

Pietrangelo was drafted fourth overall in the 2008 NHL draft. St. Louis is the only franchise that he’s ever known. His wife and her family are from here.
