Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins News Release


WILKES-BARRE, Pa. - The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins announced today that they have signed defenseman Reid McNeill to a professional tryout agreement.

He was traded by the Penguins to the St. Louis Blues on Nov. 19, 2016 in exchange for Danny Kristo. McNeill played the duration of that season in the AHL with the Chicago Wolves, then suited up for the Syracuse Crunch in 2017-18. McNeill is four AHL games shy of 300 in his career.

The 27-year-old from London, Ontario spent last season overseas with Dornbirner EC of Austria's Erste Bank Eishockey Liga. In 46 games with Dornbirner, McNeill registered one goal and 10 assists for 11 points.
