The St. Louis Blues signed center Pius Suter to a two-year, $4.125 million contract, taking one of the last highly pursued free agents off the board.
St. Louis will be Suter’s fourth stop in six seasons in the NHL.
The Zurich, Switzerland, native has produced double-digit goal totals in each of his five seasons, but enjoyed a breakout season in Vancouver in 2024-25. He tallied career highs in goals (25) and points (46) and tied his career best with 21 assists.
Suter also averaged 17:20 of ice time per game, a career best.
He began his career with the Chicago Blackhawks in 2020-21, scoring 14 goals in 55 games. He played with the Detroit Red Wings from 2021-23, then competed for the Canucks the last two seasons.
The addition of Suter gives St. Louis four solid centers, led by Robert Thomas and captain Brayden Schenn. Veteran Nick Bjugstad, who played for Utah in 2024-25, was just signed and could occupy a fourth-line role, with Suter slotting in on the third line.
