Blues Sign T.J. Hensick to Two-Year Deal

The St. Louis Blues announced on Monday that they have signed center T.J. Hensick to a two-year contract extension. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. He would have been a restricted free agent on July 1. In 13 games this past season with the Blues, Hensick had one goal and two assists for three points. He also appeared in 59 games with Peoria of the AHL, scoring 21 goals and 48 assists for 69 points. This is really just a depth signing for the Blues, as Hensick will likely spend a good chunk of next season in the minors once again. If he does play for St. Louis next season, he will bring plenty of speed and versatility to the team, but it will likely be in the event of an injury.
