The Blues are not a large market team, and they’ll never have a franchise valuation like that of the Toronto Maple Leafs or Montreal Canadiens.
But for a mid-market team, the Blues are doing ok. According to the St. Louis Business Journal’s analysis of Forbes’ 2016 NHL Valuations, their valuation has risen to $310 million dollars, up 14.8% and $40 million dollars from last year. Their overall value has grown from $130 million during the last year of Dave Checketts’ group’s tenure.
Regular season and post-season success has been helpful in raising the valuation of the team, now the 23rd most valuable in the league.
