Dave Eminian of The Peoria Journal Star reports the St. Louis Blues have added center Dave Scatchard to an NHL-AHL deal which will likely mean he starts the year with the Peoria Rivermen. However, as St. Louis Game Time points out, Scatchard “will battle for a [roster] spot [with the Blues] during camp.”
Scatchard is a ten-year NHL veteran. He appeared in 16 games for the Nashville Predators last season.
