Yet again, the Chris Butler era is over.

After Sunday afternoon’s commanding 5-1 win against the Columbus Blue Jackets, the Blues decided to send seven more players down to their AHL affiliate in San Antonio. Despite scoring the Blues’ first goal, Chris Butler was one of them.

Here’s the full list:

  • Klim Kostin
  • Mackenzie MacEachern
  • Adam Musil
  • Jordan Nolan
  • Nolan Stevens
  • Chris Butler
  • Mitch Reinke

The biggest of those names, 2017 first round pick Klim Kostin, has been generally a non-factor in the preseason, but is always welcome in case the Blues need an injury related call-up at a later date.

This move reduces the Blues’ preseason roster down to 33, including injured players.
