Jimmy Snuggerud poised for significant contract raise with Blues

Jimmy Snuggerud, 22, has completed his first full NHL season with the St. Louis Blues, recording 21 goals and 30 assists in 70 games. Following a strong finish where he scored 35 points in the last 30 games, speculation suggests he could command over $10 million annually on his next contract. Snuggerud, who was drafted 23rd overall in 2022, emerged as a key player alongside Dylan Holloway and Robert Thomas, forming one of the highest-scoring lines in the league. With his entry-level contract nearing its end, discussions about a new deal are anticipated, although projections vary on the final amount. The Blues have ample salary cap space available for potential negotiations next summer.
