Troy Brouwer doesn't want to be one-and-done in St. Louis.
The 30-year-old, who's set to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, expressed a desire to remain with the Blues following Wednesday's season-ending loss to the San Jose Sharks.
Troy Brouwer said he loved playing for #stlblues and would love to return. But doesn't know what other signings/cap issues will be.

The problem is, he may have priced himself out of St. Louis with his postseason performance.
With eight goals and five assists in 20 games, Brouwer certainly upped his value as a free agent and will have plenty of suitors on the open market who could offer a raise over his 2015-16 cap hit of $3,666,666.
Whether general manager Doug Armstrong will invest in his veteran presence or move towards a younger roster remains to be seen.
