Mailloux has been traded to the St. Louis Blues in a deal that doesn’t include Jordan Kyrou. The Montreal Canadiens had been rumoured to be after Kyrou, but in the end, Mailloux was swapped for Zack Bolduc.

Zack Bolduc is joining the team he grew up cheering for with mixed emotions. The Montreal Canadiens acquired Bolduc from the St. Louis Blues for defenceman Logan Mailloux minutes before NHL free agency opened at noon ET on Tuesday.
