Blues' Troy Brouwer: Scores goal in loss
Brouwer picked up a goal on his lone shot and also supplied two PIM and two hits in Thursday's 6-4 round-robin loss to Vegas.
Brouwer gave the Blues their final lead of the game when he buried a backdoor one-timer in the latter stages of the second period. The 34-year-old winger is a battled-tested playoff veteran but isn't likely to supply much offensive punch over the course of the postseason.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Brought in for training camp
Brouwer, along with Niko Mikkola and Joel Hofer, joined the Blues for the start of training camp Monday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Brouwer was signed partway through the season after a professional tryout when the team was dealing with a bevy of injuries. The veteran winger will likely struggle to break into the lineup during the postseason but could get a look if more injuries occur.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Placed on waivers
St. Louis placed Brouwer on waivers Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Brouwer has been a healthy scratch for seven straight games since being promoted Feb. 25, so this move doesn't come as a surprise. There's no reason for fantasy owners to keep tabs on the veteran forward's status.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Promoted to parent club
St. Louis recalled Brouwer from AHL San Antonio on Tuesday.
Brouwer will likely stick with the big club for the remainder of the season, but he'll have a tough time cracking the lineup on a regular basis. The 34-year-old winger has potted one goal while averaging just 9:28 of ice time per contest in 13 appearances with the Blues this year.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Shuffles back to minors
The Blues reassigned Brouwer (illness) to AHL San Antonio on Sunday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Brouwer has missed the past two games with a sickness, but he's often a healthy scratch anyway. The Blues sent him down following the All-Star break, but it wasn't clear if the veteran winger would report to the minor-league affiliate. That will come into question again, and the team may give him a few days to ponder his options.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Out versus division foe
Brouwer (illness) won't play against the Predators on Saturday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Brouwer is an occasional healthy scratch and was waived Jan. 26, so his absence won't shake up the lineup. His next chance to play will be Sunday's rematch versus the Preds.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Under the weather
Brouwer is dealing with an illness that will sideline him against Vegas on Thursday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Brouwer has struggled to crack the lineup for the Blues with any consistency. Even when the veteran does play, he is averaging a meager 9:28 of ice time. It would likely take a significant number of injuries for Brouwer to jump up to a top-six role and even then, he is unlikely to offer much in terms of fantasy value.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Back with big club
The Blues recalled Brouwer from AHL San Antonio on Wednesday, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.
The Blues got healthy over the All-Star break so they waived Brouwer and assigned him to minors. However, after two games, the injury bug has reappeared and they placed Oskar Sundqvist (lower body) on IR. Brouwer will likely serve as a healthy scratch during this NHL stint, and he tops out as a fourth-line forward.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Assigned to AHL
General manager Doug Armstrong said Brouwer has cleared waivers and has been assigned to AHL San Antonio, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Brouwer was brought aboard off a PTO due to a plethora of injuries to the Blues' forward corps but now the team is healthy and his services are no longer necessary. As a result, Armstrong said he's giving Brouwer a week to ponder his options, which means the 34-year-old winger may not report to the minors. The Blues could also seek trade options for Brouwer at the deadline, but he likely won't bring in much of a haul after posting just one point over 10 games this year.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Waived by Blues
The Blues waived Brouwer on Sunday, James Mirtle of The Athletic reports.
The defending champs brought the 34-year-old winger aboard after a slew of injuries, but he only played 10 of 31 games, posting a goal and dishing out 19 hits. The Blues should get Sammy Blais (wrist) back soon, so Brouwer's move will free up a roster spot. If he clears waivers, he'll land with AHL San Antonio.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Can't crack lineup
Brouwer has been a healthy scratch for 10 straight games.
The Blues are fairly healthy right now, so Brouwer can't get back in the fold. He's only played 10 games this year and recorded one point. Considering Sammy Blais (wrist) is nearing a return, this could become the status quo for the journeyman.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Scores in loss to Sabres
Brouwer pitched in a goal during a 5-2 loss to Buffalo on Tuesday.
Brouwer was playing in just his eighth game of 2019-20, picking up his first point of the season in a losing cause. The 34-year-old does not deserve fantasy consideration this year, strange considering Brouwer had spent so many seasons racking up anywhere between 20 and 40 points.

Brouwer (immigration) had one shot on goal in 9:01 of playing time in Monday's 3-2 shootout loss to Nashville.
Brouwer was in the St. Louis lineup for the first time all season after resolving his visa issues. He saw limited ice time and did not hit the scoresheet outside of his one hit.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Could make season debut Monday
Brouwer (immigration) is considered a game-time decision for Tuesday's game against the Predators.
Brouwer's still waiting for his visa issues to be resolved, and he's expected to play if it's done in time. If not, coach Craig Berube will likely deploy Nathan Walker -- who was recalled from AHL San Antonio on Sunday -- on the fourth line.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Marked as non-roster player
Brouwer (vias issues) was designated as a non-roster player Sunday, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Hung up with visa issues
Brouwer (visa issues) won't play in Saturday's game against the Predators, Eric Stephens of The Athletic reports.
Brouwer signed a one-year deal with the Blues on Wednesday after multiple injuries to the team's forward corps, but his season debut will be put on hold. The 34-year-old winger is expected to play in the bottom six when he's ready, and he adds a veteran presence as well as a scoring touch. Brouwer posted 12 goals and 21 points with the Panthers last year, and he'll look to clear up his visa concerns by Monday's matchup against the Predators.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Inks one-year deal
Brouwer signed a one-year contract worth $750,000 with the Blues on Wednesday.
Following long-term injuries to Vladimir Tarasenko (shoulder) and Alex Steen (ankle), the Blues brought in Brouwer on a professional tryout agreement. Now, Sammy Blais will miss 10 weeks with a wrist injury, so the Blues will bring Brouwer aboard full-time to add depth and a valued veteran presence to the lineup. The 34-year-old scored 12 goals and added nine assists for the Panthers last year.

Blues' Troy Brouwer: Inks PTO with Blues
Brouwer signed a professional tryout agreement with the Blues on Monday.
Brouwer played a key role in the Blues' run to the 2016 Western Conference finals, as he registered 18 goals and 39 points in the regular season and stacked up another 13 points in the playoffs. The Blues let him walk in free agency, and Brouwer spent two years with the Flames and one with the Panthers, marking 25 or fewer points in each campaign. It makes sense that the Blues are affording the 34-year-old winger another shot with the team since Vladimir Tarasenko (shoulder) is out until late March, as the former brings veteran experience to the table and could serve as a physical force to the bottom six.
