Blue Jackets place Campbell on waivers for purpose of contract termination

Gregory Campbell has played his last game as a member of the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Columbus placed the enforcer on waivers Saturday with the purpose of terminating his contract, the team confirmed.

The veteran of over 800 games has not suited up for the Blue Jackets or the team's American Hockey League affiliate - the Cleveland Monsters - this season, but the club remains on the hook for his $1.7-million salary.

Campbell has amassed 71 goals, 186 points, and 696 penalty minutes over his 12 seasons in the league.
