Saad signed a five-year, $22.5 million contract with St. Louis on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Saad managed just 24 points last year but was limited to just 44 appearances due to the shortened season and injuries. With a full 82-game campaign at his disposal, the 28-year-old winger should get back to being a 20-goal producer. With the addition of Pavel Buchnevich, Saad may have to settle for a spot on the second line, though that will also depend on whether the team keeps Vladimir Tarasenko.
