Theo Lindstein Assigned To AHL Springfield After Four-Game Stint

The St. Louis Blues assigned 21-year-old defenseman Theo Lindstein to the Springfield Thunderbirds of the AHL. Lindstein played the first four games of the regular season, recording one assist while averaging 14:33 of ice time. After being replaced by pre-season waiver claim Justin Barron, Lindstein sat as a healthy scratch for six straight games. The organization decided the AHL assignment is best for his ongoing development over sitting in the press box.
