The St. Louis Blues have signed forward Andre Heim to a one-year, entry-level contract.

Hailing from Switzerland, the 25-year-old has showcased his talent in the Swiss National League over the past six seasons, representing both SC Bern and HC Ambri-Piotta.

The Blues, led by President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Doug Armstrong, have shown their confidence in Heim's abilities and look forward to his contributions to the team.

As Heim enters the final year of his contract with HC Ambri-Piotta, he stands at a crossroads in his career, with the potential to take the leap to the NHL. With his scoring prowess and experience, he has garnered interest from NHL suitors eager to see how his skills will translate to the highest level of competition
