The Blues announced today that veteran forward James Neal has been placed on waivers.
Neal was signed after training camp in October to a one year deal worth $750,000 thanks to an impressive PTO period. In 17 games played with the Blues this season, most of which were on the fourth line, Neal posted two goals and two assist. He then landed on the injured reserve in late November, after injuring himself in practice before the Blues’ game in Detroit. On top if that, he was then placed on the Covid-19 protocol list in late December.
