Scottie Upshall could be on the verge of officially reuniting with the St. Louis Blues.
The veteran forward took the ice with the club Saturday morning, according to The Athletic's Jeremy Rutherford, and the team announced earlier Saturday that Upshall will meet with general manager Doug Armstrong and head coach Mike Yeo later in the day.
Upshall passed a physical and signed a tryout agreement with the Blues that enabled him to practice with the club while the two sides negotiate a contract, Rutherford added.
The Vancouver Canucks released Upshall from a tryout deal Friday.
He spent the last two seasons with the Blues before becoming a free agent this summer.
St. Louis has been looking to fill the void left by the season-ending injury to Robby Fabbri, and Armstrong revealed Thursday that the club has had internal discussions about signing Jaromir Jagr, among others.
