Nolan signed a one-year, two-way contract worth $700,000 with the Blues on Sunday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nolan got a $700,000 birthday gift from his team with this contract, as the veteran forward turned 30 years old Sunday. He tallied just two assists in 14 NHL contests last year, splitting time between St. Loius and AHL San Antonio.

Nolan was reassigned to AHL San Antonio on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The Blues made a series of transactions ahead of Wednesday's game against the Ducks -- it's the final contest before the All-Star break -- with Nolan and Jordan Kyrou moving back to the AHL to support the big club activating Tyler Bozak (concussion) and Zach Sanford (concussion) from injured reserve. Obviously, Nolan won't be able to help fantasy owners away from the NHL, but he could return to the top level in February if the Notes require his gritty presence following the break.

The Blues recalled Nolan from AHL San Antonio on Sunday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nolan was a strong physical presence in a fourth-line role for the Blues in December, dishing out 19 hits and serving 14 PIM in 11 games while averaging just 7:38 of ice time. The Blues need extra players in case of further injury to their battered forward corps, but Nolan won't elevate past a bottom-six role.

Nolan cleared waivers Wednesday and was sent to AHL San Antonio.

EDGE Analysis

Nolan was a healthy scratch Monday for the first time since his promotion to the top level, so it isn't surprising that this move followed considering he's seen less than 10 minutes of ice time in nine of the 11 games he drew into. The veteran winger will return to an organizational depth role, but he should be one of the first names recalled if injuries hit.

Nolan was waived by the Blues on Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Expect plenty of waiver transactions across the NHL as teams resolve to tidy up their rosters on New Year's Day. Nolan is under a two-way contract with the Blues, so he's liable to go unclaimed and head to AHL San Antonio.

Nolan was brought up from AHL San Antonio on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran signed a deal with the Blues this offseason, but was waived before the season began, landing him in the AHL. The 29-year-old has never had more than 10 points in a season, and is really only being called up for depth with the Blues recently hit by injury.

Nolan was waived by the Blues on Friday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nolan posted exactly four goals and four assists in each of the past two seasons -- first with the Kings and then the Sabres. That's not going to move the needle in any fantasy format.

Nolan inked a two-year, two-way contract with St. Louis on Thursday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nolan hasn't played in the AHL since 2012-13, however, that is certainly a possibility after the 29-year-old agreed to a two-way deal. Last season with Buffalo, the center tallied eight points in 69 outings, while averaging a paltry 9:48 of ice time. How much (or if) the Ontario native spends time in the minors will likely be determined during training camp.

Nolan scored his third goal of the season, and first since Nov. 22, in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Coyotes.

EDGE Analysis

He also added four hits and two PIM, categories he's more accustomed to making his mark in. Nolan has neither the offensive talent nor the linemates to be a fantasy asset skating on a checking unit for the struggling Sabres.

Nolan had an assist in a 4-3 win over the Devils on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The assist was Nolan's first appearance on the scoresheet since an assist on Nov. 24 against Edmonton. With contributions this infrequent and no track record of producing points, the son of former Sabres coach Ted Nolan offers no real fantasy value in any format.
