The St. Louis Blues made another trade this weekend, although it’s a mild understatement to say that it isn’t likely to make the same impact as that one you might have heard about on Friday. They made a minor-league swap on Sunday, acquiring Eric Selleck from the Florida Panthers’ system in exchange for Mark Mancari.

Rather than trotting out a bunch of stats about Selleck, these photos of the 26-year-old punching and getting punched should basically do the trick:
