Peterson will join the Blues' AHL affiliate, the Springfield Thunderbirds, on an amateur tryout contract to conclude the 2023-24 season.

Peterson, 22, just finished his senior season at Boston University, where he posted 20 points (eight goals, 12 assists) in 35 regular-season games and led the team to the 2024 Frozen Four. Across his collegiate career, the 6'4, 192-pound forward complied 60 points (26 goals, 34 assists) and 142 penalty minutes in 119 regular-season games.

The Thunderbirds complete the weekend on Sunday afternoon before their 19th sellout of the season, when they welcome the Providence Bruins to the MassMutual Center at 3:05 p.m.
