Blues Secure Jake Neighbours with Two-Year, $7.5M Extension

The 22-year-old winger signs a bridge deal, avoiding restricted free agency and staying with St. Louis through 2026-27.

Jake Neighbours, a former first-round pick, has agreed to a two-year contract extension with an average annual value of $3.75 million.
Neighbours, who scored 27 goals last season, has started this season with three points in six games.
The extension allows Neighbours to focus on his performance without the stress of pending free agency.
Neighbours' deal aligns with similar contracts for young players like Cole Perfetti and Shane Pinto.
The Blues now have approximately $8.14 million in cap space for next season, with several roster spots to fill.
