Blues Claim Crombeen Off Waivers from Stars

The St. Louis Blues announced on Tuesday that they have claimed right wing B.J. Crombeen off waivers from the Dallas Stars. So far this season, Crombeen has played in 15 games, scoring one goal and four assists for five points and 26 penalty minutes. The Blues' offense is currently ravaged with injuries, with D.J. King, T.J. Oshie, Dan Hinote, Paul Kariya, and Andy McDonald all on injured reserve. Crombeen is an affordable pickup for the Blues which did not cost them a roster player. He will likely see time on the checking lines given his gritty style of play.
