Blues Secure Pavel Buchnevich with Six-Year Extension

The veteran forward's $8 million per season contract ensures he remains with St. Louis through 2031.

Buchnevich's new contract includes a full no-trade clause until 2029, then modified clauses for the final two years.
He has been a key player for the Blues, contributing 206 points in 216 games since joining in 2021.
The extension aligns with the Blues' strategy to contend for a championship with their current core by 2031.
Buchnevich's performance last season was below his usual standard, but he played a career-high 80 games.
The Blues aim to boost their offense with Buchnevich, new signings, and the development of young talents.
