Blues Claim B.J. Crombeen Off Waivers From Dallas
ST. LOUIS – St. Louis Blues President John Davidson announced today the team has claimed forward B.J. Crombeen on waivers from the Dallas Stars.

Crombeen, 23, has appeared in 15 games with Dallas this season, posting five points (one goal, four assists) along with 26 penalty minutes. The 6-2, 212-pound right winger has skated in 23 career NHL games, recording seven points (one goal, six assists) and 65 penalty minutes. The Denver, Colorado native was originally Dallas’ second round selection, 54th overall in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft.

Crombeen’s father, Mike Crombeen, played five seasons with the Blues from 1978-83. Mike Crombeen scored one of the biggest goals in Blues history when he netted a series clinching double overtime goal against Pittsburgh in the first round of the 1981 playoffs.

B.J. and Mike would be the third father and son combination to play for the Blues. Bob and Brent Johnson were the first and Peter and Yan Stastny were the second.

Nice, good to see Crombeen won't be sent back to the A.

Nice pickup by the Blues to add even more grit to their lineup. I think Crombeen has showed that he deserves a spot on an NHL roster.

Glad to see Crombeen get another shot!

Boy, the Blues have the right idea. They lose King for the year, they pick up David Koci off waivers.

They lose Andy McDonald for a long period, they pick up BJ Crombeen off waivers.

Not bad.

They're trying to turn into the Ducks of the midwest.

Don't waiver claims go in order of worst to first? The Blackhawks never would have had a shot at Koci or Crombeen if the Blues wanted them first.
