Overview
- St. Louis locked in forward Dylan Holloway on a five-year deal worth $7.75 million per season, totaling $38.75 million through 2030-31.
- Holloway was set to be a restricted free agent with arbitration rights, and this extension converts that short-term status into team control through his age-29 season.
- Holloway delivered a breakout first year in St. Louis with 26 goals and 63 points in 77 games after arriving in a 2024 offer sheet from Edmonton.
- He lost time this season with a right ankle injury and finished with 59 games, yet the Blues committed to term rather than a shorter bridge deal.
- The timing aligns with the Blues’ 2031 decision window, which also includes Pavel Buchnevich, Jordan Kyrou, and Robert Thomas.
