Blues Sign Fabbri to One-Year Two-Way Contract Amid Injuries and Roster Changes
The St. Louis Blues have signed forward Robby Fabbri to a one-year, two-way contract worth $775,000 in the NHL and $300,000 in the AHL, marking his return to the organization where he began his NHL career. Fabbri, 29, who was initially drafted 21st overall in 2014, previously played for the Blues, Detroit Red Wings, and Anaheim Ducks, accumulating 216 points over 442 NHL games. After participating in the Penguins' PTO and preseason without securing a contract, Fabbri recently played with the Charlotte Checkers in the AHL, recording one goal and one assist. The Blues signed him as he aims to rebound from a challenging 2024-25 season with the Ducks, where he scored 8 goals and 8 assists in 44 games. The team also placed star forward Jordan Kyrou on injured reserve due to a lower-body injury, with an estimated recovery time of one week to week. Fabbri is expected to join the team in Nashville soon, as the Blues continue to manage injuries and roster adjustments. Meanwhile, other team updates include signing Dube to an AHL tryout, recalling players from Springfield, and acquiring Akil Thomas in a trade with the Kings. The Blues are also dealing with injuries to Snuggerud and Toropchenko, while recent game results show mixed performances, including a loss to the Bruins and a narrow victory over the Senators.
