Brouwer announced his retirement from the NHL on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer will finish his NHL career having racked up 182 goals and 363 points through 851 games in 14 seasons split between the Blackhawks, Capitals, Blues, Flames and Panthers. The 36-year-old winger won a Stanley Cup in 2010 with Chicago.

Brouwer picked up a goal on his lone shot and also supplied two PIM and two hits in Thursday's 6-4 round-robin loss to Vegas.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer gave the Blues their final lead of the game when he buried a backdoor one-timer in the latter stages of the second period. The 34-year-old winger is a battled-tested playoff veteran but isn't likely to supply much offensive punch over the course of the postseason.

Brouwer, along with Niko Mikkola and Joel Hofer, joined the Blues for the start of training camp Monday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer was signed partway through the season after a professional tryout when the team was dealing with a bevy of injuries. The veteran winger will likely struggle to break into the lineup during the postseason but could get a look if more injuries crop up.

St. Louis placed Brouwer on waivers Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer has been a healthy scratch for seven straight games since being promoted Feb. 25, so this move doesn't come as a surprise. There's no reason for fantasy owners to keep tabs on the veteran forward's status.

St. Louis recalled Brouwer from AHL San Antonio on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer will likely stick with the big club for the remainder of the season, but he'll have a tough time cracking the lineup on a regular basis. The 34-year-old winger has potted one goal while averaging just 9:28 of ice time per contest in 13 appearances with the Blues this year.

The Blues reassigned Brouwer (illness) to AHL San Antonio on Sunday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer has missed the past two games with a sickness, but he's often a healthy scratch anyway. The Blues sent him down following the All-Star break, but it wasn't clear if the veteran winger would report to the minor-league affiliate. That will come into question again, and the team may give him a few days to ponder his options.

Brouwer (illness) won't play against the Predators on Saturday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer is an occasional healthy scratch and was waived Jan. 26, so his absence won't shake up the lineup. His next chance to play will be Sunday's rematch versus the Preds.

Brouwer is dealing with an illness that will sideline him against Vegas on Thursday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer has struggled to crack the lineup for the Blues with any consistency. Even when the veteran does play, he is averaging a meager 9:28 of ice time. It would likely take a significant number of injuries for Brouwer to jump up to a top-six role and even then, he is unlikely to offer much in terms of fantasy value.

The Blues recalled Brouwer from AHL San Antonio on Wednesday, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Blues got healthy over the All-Star break so they waived Brouwer and assigned him to minors. However, after two games, the injury bug has reappeared and they placed Oskar Sundqvist (lower body) on IR. Brouwer will likely serve as a healthy scratch during this NHL stint, and he tops out as a fourth-line forward.

General manager Doug Armstrong said Brouwer has cleared waivers and has been assigned to AHL San Antonio, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer was brought aboard off a PTO due to a plethora of injuries to the Blues' forward corps but now the team is healthy and his services are no longer necessary. As a result, Armstrong said he's giving Brouwer a week to ponder his options, which means the 34-year-old winger may not report to the minors. The Blues could also seek trade options for Brouwer at the deadline, but he likely won't bring in much of a haul after posting just one point over 10 games this year.
