This has been a long time coming, and the rumors can finally be put to rest. Alexandre Texier and the ongoing speculations of his future with the St. Louis Blues have been put to rest. Today, the franchise officially announced that it will be parting ways with Texier, terminating his contract.
Texier, who was on the roster's salary table for $2.1 million over the next two seasons, will now become a free agent. There has been heavy speculation as to where he will end up, with Elliotte Friedman reporting on Montreal being the frontrunner. A reunion with former Blues star Zack Bolduc could be in order.
