ST. LOUIS -- The Blues announced the signings of two players drafted in previous years to entry-level contracts.
The Blues signed forward Mackenzie MacEachern to a two-year, entry-level deal and forward Adam Musil to a three-year, entry-level contract.
The team drafted MacEachern, 22, in the third round (67th overall) of the 2012 NHL Entry Draft. The 6-foot-3, 205-pound native of Troy, Michigan, has played the past three seasons at Michigan State. MacEachern led the Spartans with 30 points and 14 goals in 37 games last season. He produced 68 points (33 goals, 35 assists) in 108 collegiate games.
Musil, 19, was drafted by the Blues in the fourth round (94th overall) in 2015. A 6-3, 196-pounder from Delta, British Columbia, Musil spent the past four seasons with the Western Hockey League's Red Deer Rebels, for whom he ranked fifth on the club with 19 goals and seventh with 43 points last season. He tallied 111 points (45 goals, 66 assists) in 195 career WHL games.
In 2014-15, Musil appeared in the Canadian Hockey League's Top Prospects Game and earned a gold medal with Team Canada at the 2015 Hlinka Memorial Tournament.
