Report: Blues GM says Sobotka will return to team

Vladimir Sobotka appears to be on his way back to the St. Louis Blues.

After rumblings in June that Sobotka would exercise an option in his KHL contract that would allow him to return to the NHL, Blues general manager Doug Armstrong confirmed the 29-year-old will be coming back, according to Jeremy Rutherford of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Though the move is not yet official, a reunion seems to be in the works.

Over the last two seasons, Sobotka suited up for Omsk, recording 28 goals and 44 assists in 97 games. He's also registered 123 points in 381 career NHL contests.
