Latest news
Dean was placed on waivers by the Blues on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Dean re-signed with the Blues during the offseason on a one-year, two-way deal. He was included on the Opening Night roster but appeared in just three of the team's first nine games of the regular season. He was held scoreless with five hits and four PIM while averaging 9:58 of ice time across that three-game span. He'll presumably have more consistent opportunities to make an impact with AHL Springfield, assuming he clears waivers.

Dean was limited to 14 points in 36 regular-season outings with AHL Springfield in 2025-26 after spending time in the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program. He will get a chance to play a full minor-league campaign after the expiration of his entry-level contract. His last NHL experience came in 2023-24 when he logged nine contests with the Blues.
