Snuggerud had a slow start to the season before missing 11 games due to a wrist injury, but upon returning, the young sniper turned his season around. Paired with Robert Thomas and Dylan Holloway, the trio formed one of the best lines in hockey down the final stretch of the season.
Heading into the 2026-27 season, the Blues’ top line will almost assuredly be this aforementioned trio.
Joining Snuggerud on the NHL All-Rookie team upfront were Montreal Canadiens winger Ivan Demidov and Anaheim Ducks winger Beckett Sennecke. On the backend, New York Islanders Calder Trophy winner Matthew Schaefer and Carolina Hurricanes’ Alexander Nikishin were selected, with Canadiens’ Jakub Dobes in goal.
