Sundqvist was extended a qualifying offer by the Blues, Fox Sports Midwest reports.

EDGE Analysis

After being picked up in a draft-day trade, St. Louis is making sure they keep the 23-year-old center around. Sundqvist hasn't proven yet that he's a NHL-ready center yet, but a solid summer with the Blues could change some minds. He scored 20 goals and 46 points in 66 games for AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton last season, so it's obvious that his long-term potential is something general manager Doug Armstrong wants to hold onto.
