ST. LOUIS \u2014 Dillon Dube signed a free agent contract with the St. Louis Blues on Wednesday, making him the second of five players acquitted<\/a> in the Canada 2018 world junior sexual assault case<\/a> to get an NHL deal since the trial ended just under a year ago.<\/p>

Dube was signed for $850,000 for next season on a one-way contract, which means he gets paid that salary whether he\u2019s in the NHL or the American Hockey League. He played 58 games this past year for the AHL\u2019s Springfield Thunderbirds after agreeing to a professional tryout<\/a> in December with St. Louis\u2019 top minor league affiliate.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve gotten to know him a lot better through that time frame,\u201d said general manager Alexander Steen, who added the organization was well aware of the situation and spoke to coaches and teammates about how Dube was in Springfield.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe wants to be a positive influence. He\u2019s had a positive influence on (that team) or a positive impact,\u201d he added. \u201cHe approaches it with a sincerity and humility. Since I got here in St. Louis, the organization has always been a second-chance organization and this is Dillon\u2019s opportunity and we feel confident in giving it to him \u2014 to fight for a spot on our team next year.\u201d<\/p>

The 5-foot-11 winger who turns 28 on July 20 follows goaltender Carter Hart back into the league. Hart signed with Vegas<\/a> in October and backstopped the Golden Knights to the Stanley Cup Final before losing to Carolina<\/a> in six games.<\/p>\n

The NHL in September reinstated<\/a> Hart, Dube, Michael McLeod, Cal Foote and Alex Formenton, allowing them to play beginning Dec. 1. That came after a judge in London, Ontario, found them not guilty of sexual assault and McLeod additionally of a separate count of being a party to the offense.<\/p>\n

McLeod in October signed a three-year contract to remain in the Russia-based KHL. Foote signed an AHL deal with the Chicago Wolves and played for them this past season. Formenton played in Switzerland.<\/p>
