2025 Fantasy Outlook
After two straight years of shooting above 18 percent, the question with Neighbours is if he can continue to sustain that level. The good news is that he can do more than he did in 2024-25, when he posted 22 goals, 24 assists, 122 shots on net, 173 hits, 56 PIM and 56 blocked shots. Neighbours is a power forward, so while his offense is unlikely to ever elevate into the elite tier, he should continue to be able to regularly reach the 20-goal and 50-point marks while adding plenty of hits and PIM. The Blues don't need to patch many holes in free agency, so it'll be on Neighbours to make enough of an improvement in 2025-26 to stay in a top-six role on a full-time basis. At 23 years old, it's fair to assume he still has another level of play he can reach. Read Past Outlooks

Out at least five weeks

Leg
October 28, 2025
Neighbours suffered a right-leg injury and will be out of action for at least five weeks. As a result, the Blues placed him on injured reserve Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
According to the team, Neighbours will be re-evaluated in five weeks, so he could certainly be sidelined even longer. Prior to getting hurt, the 23-year-old winger produced six goals and one assist in eight games, despite failing to register a point with the man advantage. With Neighbours sidelined, Alexei Toropchenko should see plenty of minutes in a bottom-six role.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Neighbours tied for second on the Blues with 27 goals last season while chipping in 11 assists, 145 shots on net and 138 hits in 77 games. He also ranked fourth on the team with 14 power-play points. Following a slow start, the 22-year-old forward began to contribute offensively in bunches before finishing the campaign with seven tallies and three helpers in his final 12 appearances. Neighbours sat out five contests to conclude the season but should be ready for training camp. He will receive every opportunity to continue his upward trajectory in 2024-25 while occupying a spot in the top six and seeing plenty of time on the man advantage. Neighbours could lead St. Louis in goals, and with a little more consistency, he may flirt with the 50-point plateau during the upcoming campaign.
Neighbours spent about half of last season in the St. Louis lineup, managing a mere six goals and 10 points in 43 games. He missed a month late in the year with an upper-body ailment before returning for the Blues' final 13 games. The No. 26 overall pick in 2020, Neighbours, has the look of a hardworking, high-floor prospect who is best suited for a bottom-six energy role at the NHL level. It's not a skill set that projects to lead to fantasy production down the road, but there's still likely another level to be found in the 21-year-old's offense.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Expected to play Thursday
LWSt. Louis Blues
January 16, 2025
Neighbours, who is dealing with an upper-body injury, will likely be available for Thursday's game against the Flames, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Neighbours is considered questionable for Thursday's matchup, but his usage during the team's morning skate was encouraging and signals that he may be able to suit up despite his upper-body injury. He's been held without a point in three consecutive games, registering six hits, five blocked shots and a plus-1 rating while averaging 17:07 of ice time across that span.
