Inks one-year extension Blais signed a one-year, $1 million contract extension with St. Louis on Thursday.
Impact Blais has appeared in 49 games split between the Rangers and the Blues this season, picking up two goals, eight points and 153 hits over that span. He should continue to deliver plenty of hits while skating in a bottom-six role for St. Louis in 2023-24, but don't expect him to produce much offense.

Punishing effort Blais posted two shots on net and five hits in the 5-3 loss to the Kraken on Tuesday.
Impact The Blues traded heavy hitter Ivan Barbashev to the Golden Knights on Sunday, so having Blais back in the Blue Note is a welcomed addition. He has posted two goals, an assist and 34 hits over nine games with the team while skating in a third-line role. The 26-year-old is also playing on the second power-play unit, so he'll have some DFS appeal moving forward.

Impact It's been a disappointing season for Blais in New York, as he has failed to find the back of the net in 40 games and has frequently been a healthy scratch of late. With his return to St. Louis, the 26-year-old winger no doubt hopes to rekindle the form that saw him score eight goals and seven assists in 36 contests during his final year in St. Louis.
