The Buffalo Sabres have made an addition to their offense as they push for an Eastern Conference playoff spot, acquiring forward Brad Boyes from St. Louis.

The Blues got a second-round pick in the 2011 NHL Draft in return for Boyes, who scored 12 goals and tallied 41 points in 62 games for St. Louis.

Boyes has been a top goal-scorer for the Blues before, scoring 76 goals in the 2007-08 and 2008-09 seasons. He was held to 14 goals last season.

After a miserable start to the season, Buffalo has stormed back within two points of the East's final playoff spot, currently held by Carolina. The Blues are seven points out of a playoff spot in the Western Conference after losing to Calgary 1-0 Sunday night.
