The Blues announced this afternoon that they acquired Jonathan Filewich from the Pittsburgh Penguins for a 6th round selection in the 2010 Entry Draft.
Filewich, 24, will be assigned to Peoria for the time being. Filewich has struggled in the AHL over the last two years, but the former 3rd round pick did have 22 and 30 goal seasons in his first two AHL seasons after a solid junior career in the WHL.
In unrelated news, the Blues have reassigned Ben Bishop, Jonas Junland and Cam Paddock to Peoria.
