Blues' Jakub Jerabek: Placed on waivers Tuesday

Jerabek was designated for waivers by the Blues on Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

The move to waive Jerabek -- with the goal of sending him down to the minors -- is a good indication Carl Gunnarsson (hip) will be activated off non-roster, injured reserve ahead of Thursday's matchup with Vegas. St. Louis traded a 2020 sixth-round pick to the Oilers in order to acquire Jerabek before the start of the season and will now risk losing him for nothing if another team submits a claim.
