Overview

  • St. Louis signed winger Dylan Holloway to a five-year extension Friday, a deal reported at $7.75 million per year through the 2030-31 season.
  • The contract starts in 2026-27 and covers his restricted years, which delays his first chance at unrestricted free agency to 2031.
  • Reported protections limit trade options late in the deal, with a 20-team no-trade list in Year 4 and a 15-team list in Year 5, per PuckPedia.
  • Holloway posted 22 goals and 51 points in 59 games this season after a 26-goal, 63-point year, finding strong late-season chemistry with Robert Thomas and Jimmy Snuggerud.
  • The Blues acquired Holloway from Edmonton via a rare 2024 offer sheet that cost a third-round pick, and this term now slots him into a larger 2031 free-agent group the incoming GM Alex Steen must plan for.
