By Giles Ferrell -
The Minnesota Wild announced this morning that they have placed veteran forward Chris Stewart on waivers.
In 47 games this season, the 30-year-old Stewart has tallied nine goals and four assists for the Wild. He has been a healthy scratch as of late, being in the press box for 10 of the past 15 games.
Minnesota is trying to get a bit more financial wiggle room by placing Stewart on waivers, as they hope to recall Luke Kunin from Iowa and sign prospect Jordan Greenway at some point.
Stewart is in the final year of the two-year contract which he signed in the summer of 2016. The contract carries a cap hit of $1.15 million annually.
