Forward T.J. Oshie was traded to the Washington Capitals by the St. Louis Blues on Thursday.

The Blues received forward Troy Brouwer, goalie Pheonix Copley and a third-round pick in the 2016 NHL Draft.

Oshie had 19 goals and 36 assists (55 points) last season, one season after setting NHL career highs with 21 goals, 39 assists and 60 points.

"T.J. is an outstanding skater with a tremendous skill set," Capitals GM Brian MacLellan said in a statement. "He is a powerful player and has consistent track record of production throughout his career in the NHL. We feel that he complements our core group nicely and can help us get to the next level in achieving our ultimate goal. We also want to thank Troy for his contributions to our organization on and off the ice and wish him well in St. Louis."

The 28-year-old had 310 points (110 goals) in 443 NHL games after being the 24th pick by St. Louis in the 2005 NHL Draft.

Brouwer, 29, had 21 goals and 22 assists (43 points) in 82 games last season. He has missed one game in four seasons since being traded to Washington by the Chicago Blackhawks in 2011. He has 255 points (132 goals) in 531 NHL games.

Copley, 23, was 17-4-3 with a 2.17 goals-against average and .925 save percentage in 26 games with Hershey of the American Hockey League last season.

The Capitals on Wednesday signed forward Justin Williams to a two-year contract.
