The strange and semi-tragic saga that surrounded Petteri Lindbohm and the St. Louis Blues has come to an end, at least for now. Linbohm is on his way to Switzerland and not just for the chocolate.
Lindbohm turned down the Blues qualifying offer. As a restricted free agent, he was basically going to have to accept the Blues offer, hope another team might put a bid in (which almost never happens anymore) or do what he did and go to Europe.
Lindbohm signed a deal with Lausanne HC in the Swiss National League.
