Blues Sign Jason Arnott and Jamie Langenbrunner

The St. Louis Blues have announced that they have signed center Jason Arnott and right wing Jamie Langenbrunner to one-year contracts worth $2.8 million. In 73 games last season with the New Jersey Devils and Washington Capitals, Arnott had 17 goals and 14 assists for 31 points. Langenbrunner appeared in 70 games last season with the Devils and Dallas Stars, scoring nine goals and 23 assists for 32 points. These aren't bad signings for the Blues, as both players will bring lots of veteran depth to the forward lines. Arnott adds a good shot to the team, as well as plenty of offensive skill and experience to the power play. Langenbrunner brings a wealth of leadership qualities to the Blues, as well as some offensive skill and versatility to the forward lines. Not only will both players serve as second or third line forwards, but will also likely help mentor some of the younger players in St. Louis.
