Breaking: Mike Hoffman has signed a PTO!

We have a stunning development to report.

According to an official announcement from the St. Louis Blues organization, veteran National Hockey League forward Mike Hoffman has agreed to a professional tryout offer with the Blues. This is a shocking move on the part of Hoffman as it does not guarantee him a contract for the upcoming NHL season, and is a sign of just how rough this free agency period has been for some of the players out there on the market.
