Before the start of the 1997–98 season, Young was traded yet again, this time to the Ducks. He only spent one season with Anaheim, scoring 13 goals and 20 assists in 73 games. Things changed when he joined the Blues, who he signed with in free agency in 1998. In his first season with St. Louis, he scored 24 goals and 28 assists in 75 regular season games, as well as four goals and seven assists in 13 playoff games. His most offensively prolific NHL season came when he was a member of St. Louis, as he posted a career-high of 40 goals and also added 33 assists in 81 games during the 2000–01 season. The Blues made the playoffs in every season of Young’s first stint with them, but were unable to advance past the Conference Finals.
