Source: Saad finalizing deal with Golden Knights
Written by I Dig Sports
Former St. Louis Blues forward Brandon Saad is finalizing a contract with the Vegas Golden Knights, a source told ESPN's Kevin Weekes.
The Blues and Saad mutually terminated his contract after he was put on waivers on Wednesday.
The Blues had tried to trade Saad over the last several months, sources told ESPN, but did not find any partners.
Saad, 32, has just 16 points (seven goals, nine assists) in 43 games this season, along with a 9.3 shooting percentage -- the second worst mark of his 14-year career.
Saad was in his fourth season with the Blues. During the prime of his career, he helped Chicago win the Stanley Cup twice: in 2013 and 2015.
Information from ESPN's Emily Kaplan and The Associated Press was used in this report.
