CHICAGO – The Flyers traded winger Brayden Schenn to the St. Louis Blues on Friday for veteran center Jori Lehtera and two first-round picks, including a conditional choice in 2018.

With the first-round pick (27th overall) they acquired Friday, they selected 5-foot-11, 170-pound center Morgan Frost.

Frost, ranked as the 49th-best prospect by draft analyst Craig Button, had 20 goals and 62 points on 67 games for Sault Ste. Marie last season.

Lehtera, 29, a Finland native who was selected by St. Louis in the third round of the 2008 draft, had seven goals and 22 points last season.

With the addition of Nolan Patrick and the 6-2, 212-pound Lehtera, the Flyers are overloaded with centers. Three years ago, Lehtera had his best season, collecting 14 goals and 44 points.

Schenn, who turns 26 on Aug. 22, was one of the Flyers’ most productive players the last two seasons, scoring 26 and 25 goals, respectively. He played center and wing throughout his six-year career with the Flyers, but spent most of this season as a winger.
