The St. Louis Blues signed forward Jordan Kyrou to an eight-year, $65 million contract extension on Tuesday.
The deal, which runs through the 2030-31 season, is similar to the agreement the team reached with fellow center Robert Thomas in July.
Kyrou, 24, is due to earn $3.2 million in 2022-23 in the second season of a two-year deal he signed in August 2021.
“I’m so thankful to the Blues organization for putting their trust in me and giving me the opportunity to wear the Blue Note for the foreseeable future,” Kyrou told the team website. “Being able to call St. Louis my home is amazing. I can’t say enough about how much I love the city. And to the best fans in the League, I can’t thank you enough for always showing me love and support.”
Kyrou set career highs across the board last season with 75 points (27 goals, 48 assists) in 74 games. He added seven goals in 12 postseason games.
He has 122 points (46 goals, 76 assists) in 173 NHL games since the Blues drafted him in the second round in 2016.
