What happened: Performance-based conditions govern the additional allocation money. Löwen leaves St. Louis after 103 appearances across all competitions.
Why it matters: San Jose sits fourth in the Western Conference, while St. Louis is sixth; both clubs have 33 points. The guaranteed GAM gives St. Louis additional flexibility for further roster moves.
By the numbers: Löwen recorded 23 goals and 30 assists for St. Louis. His 47 regular-season goal contributions and 27 assists are both club records.
What to watch: San Jose's next roster sheet will show how quickly Löwen enters the midfield rotation.
