Alexandre Texier's time in St. Louis is officially over.
The former Blues forward cleared unconditional waivers and his contract has been terminated, the team announced on Sunday. Texier is now an unrestricted free agent.
The 26-year-old played just eight games with the Blues this season, registering one assist while playing 10:15 a night.
Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman noted on Sunday that "all eyes are on the Montreal Canadiens" when it comes to Texier's potential landing spots.
The Saint-Martin-d'Heres, France native recorded 91 points (40 goals, 51 assists) in 240 NHL games between the Blues and Blue Jackets.
Meanwhile, the Buffalo Sabres placed goalie Alexandar Georgiev on unconditional waivers for contract termination.
Georgiev played two games for the Rochester Americans of the AHL, sporting a 3.57 goals-against average and an .896 save percentage.
The 29-year-old is set to join Spartak of the KHL. He signed a one-year, $825,000 contract with Buffalo in the off-season.
