Robert Thomas Available Saturday

St. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas (upper body) will return to the lineup on Saturday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. He suffered an upper-body injury earlier this week, but luckily for the Blues, Thomas was out for only one game. The 2024 All-Star will reclaim his spot on the first line, forcing Dalibor Dvorsky to move down to the third. Thomas has been very impressive in March, recording five goals and eight assists in 11 games. If he can maintain his improved scoring rate, Thomas might still average a point per game for a third consecutive season. He currently sits on 46 points (16 goals, 30 assists) in 53 outings.

Robert Thomas Sits Out Thursday's Action

St. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas (upper body) will miss Thursday's clash against the San Jose Sharks. St. Louis' No. 1 center was injured in Tuesday's loss to Washington and will be forced to sit out at least one game. His first chance to return will be on Saturday when the Blues host the Toronto Maple Leafs. Dalibor Dvorsky is expected to take over first-line center duties from Thomas, boosting his fantasy value. Recently, Dvorsky has struggled to make an impact offensively, finishing scoreless in 12 of his last 14 outings.

Joel Hofer Picks Up Sixth Shutout of the Season

St. Louis Blues goaltender Joel Hofer frustrated the Washington Capitals on Tuesday night, recording his sixth shutout of the season in a 3-0 win. He made 21 saves, bringing him within one of tying Ilya Sorokin of the New York Islanders for the most shutouts in 2025-26. While Jordan Binnington was Team Canada's No. 1 at the Olympics, Hofer has outperformed him in St. Louis this season. The Winnipeg-born netminder holds an 18-11-5 record, a 2.57 goals-against average, and a .910 save percentage. He has gone 6-0-2 across his last eight starts.

Tyler Tucker Out Week-to-Week

St. Louis Blues defenseman Tyler Tucker (lower body) is week-to-week. He didn't play in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Vancouver Canucks due to a lower-body injury and is set to miss multiple games. Tucker has appeared in a career-high 61 games this season, registering 13 points (three goals, 10 assists), 62 shots, 44 blocks, 90 hits, and 81 penalty minutes. Justin Holl rejoined the lineup on Saturday and is expected to have a regular role until Tucker returns. Saturday's game was only Holl's fourth appearance of the season in the NHL. He has recorded one assist, with two shots on goal, three blocks, two hits, and a plus-three rating.

Jonathan Drouin • LW • Blues

Jonathan Drouin Back in Action Wednesday

St. Louis Blues winger Jonathan Drouin will return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Calgary Flames. He exited the lineup for personal reasons last week and has missed the last three games. Drouin is expected to join Dalibor Dvorsky and Otto Stenberg on the third line. Stenberg is also a fresh face in the lineup, with Jonatan Berggren and Oskar Sundqvist making way. Since being acquired from the New York Islanders, Drouin has appeared in two games for the Blues, scoring one goal on two shots. This marks one of only two points he has earned in his last 18 outings.

Joel Hofer Shuts Down the Oilers

St. Louis Blues goaltender Joel Hofer made 37 saves and earned the 3-2 victory versus the Oilers in overtime on Friday night. This was a very impressive performance against one of the league's best offenses, especially since Edmonton took 39 shots in the contest. Hofer has solid numbers in his third full season in the NHL with a 2.67 goals against average and a .907 save percentage to go along with his 16-11-4 record.

Jimmy Snuggerud Scores Twice Versus Carolina

St. Louis Blues right winger Jimmy Snuggerud had a two-goal game in a 3-1 win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Thursday. His goals came back-to-back and gave the Blues a 2-1 lead. The 21-year-old rookie has been on fire lately with five goals and nine points in his last four games. He is a great waiver-wire pick-up right now in most fantasy leagues.

Blues Hopeful Robert Thomas Can Play Through Upper-Body Injury

St. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas (upper body) is expected to remain in the lineup despite being hurt in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the New York Islanders, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports. Thomas appeared to have sustained a hand injury and took only one faceoff during Tuesday's game. The 26-year-old dished out two assists against the Islanders, recording his fourth multi-point game in five appearances since returning from a leg injury. While Thomas has played in only 47 of St. Louis' 64 games, he leads his team in scoring with 42 points (15 goals, 27 assists).

Colton Parayko Rejoins Blues Lineup

St. Louis Blues defenseman Colton Parayko (back) will return to the lineup on Tuesday against the New York Islanders. Parayko has missed five games due to back spasms. The 32-year-old has appeared in 58 contests this season, recording 14 points (one goal, 13 assists), 71 shots, 141 blocks, and 67 hits. In Tuesday's matchup, Parayko is expected to work with Theo Lindstein on the second defensive pairing. Justin Holl and Matt Kessel will sit out the game.

Robert Thomas Returns to Action With Multi-Point Effort

St. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas notched a goal and an assist in Sunday's surprising 3-1 road win against the Minnesota Wild. Thomas was back from a 13-game absence after missing time due to a leg injury and a personal matter. He set up Logan Mailloux for the game-tying goal in the second period and finished the scoring with an empty-net goal in the third. Thomas has had a frustrating year on a bad team but has now registered multiple points in each of his last two outings. He will aim for his first three-game multi-point streak of the season on Wednesday night against the Seattle Kraken. Thomas sits second in scoring on the Blues squad, with 35 points (12 goals, 23 assists) in 43 games.

Colton Parayko • D • Blues

Colton Parayko Doubtful for Sunday

St. Louis Blues defenseman Colton Parayko (back) is doubtful for Sunday's matchup with the Minnesota Wild, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports. The 2026 Olympian exited the lineup for Saturday's game against New Jersey due to back spasms and appears poised to miss multiple games. Parayko leads the Blues with 141 blocks and has notched 14 points (one goal, 13 assists) in 58 contests. Matt Kessel replaced Parayko in the lineup on Saturday. Following Sunday's game, the Blues won't play again until Wednesday, giving Parayko extra time to recover.

Oskar Sundqvist • C • Blues

Oskar Sundqvist Available Saturday

St. Louis Blues center Oskar Sundqvist (upper body) is an option for Saturday's contest against the New Jersey Devils, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports. The Swedish forward underwent surgery during the Olympic break and wasn't available for Thursday's matchup with the Seattle Kraken. In 43 outings this season, Sundqvist has registered 14 points (four goals, 10 assists), 34 shots, and 53 hits. He is likely to fill a bottom-six role if he returns on Saturday, limiting Sundqvist's fantasy appeal.

Jordan Binnington • G • Blues

Jordan Binnington on Non-Roster List

St. Louis Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington is not on the roster for Thursday night's game versus the Kraken. Goaltender Joel Hofer will get the start in his place, and Georgi Romanov will serve as the backup. Binnington is expected to rejoin St. Louis for Saturday's game against New Jersey. For the season, Binnington has a 3.65 goals-against average and an .864 save percentage.

Dylan Holloway • LW • Blues

Dylan Holloway Rejoins Blues Lineup Thursday

St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway (ankle) will return to work on Thursday against the Seattle Kraken. He has missed 23 of the last 24 games due to a right high ankle sprain. The injury has been one of many challenges for Holloway during a testing campaign. A year after a 63-point season, he has contributed just eight goals and nine assists in 34 games. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect an improvement from Holloway, as the Blues are bound to finish among the worst teams in the league. For Thursday's game, Holloway is expected to be paired with Pius Suter and Jonatan Berggren on the third line. He will also have a spot on the second power-play unit.

Robert Thomas Takes Leave of Absence

St. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas (leg, personal) won't be in the lineup on Thursday against the Seattle Kraken. He has been granted a leave of absence to attend to a personal matter. Thomas is also currently on Injured Reserve after undergoing a minor leg procedure in late January. He is expected to return to the team on Friday, but it's unclear whether he will be an option for this weekend's back-to-back set. Thomas is among St. Louis' top scorers, with 33 points (11 goals, 22 assists) in 42 games. Brayden Schenn (illness) may also be out on Thursday after missing Wednesday's practice. As a result, Dalibor Dvorsky could handle the first-line center duties.

Jordan Binnington Records 26-Save Shutout Against Czechia

St. Louis Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington started the 2026 Olympics in outstanding form, recording a 26-save shutout in a 5-0 win over Czechia on Thursday. The 32-year-old became only the fourth Team Canada goaltender to post a shutout in an Olympic game featuring NHL players, joining Carey Price, Roberto Luongo, and Patrick Roy. Binnington has struggled with the Blues this season, going 8-17-6 in 30 starts with a 3.65 goals-against average and a .864 save percentage. However, he has a much stronger team in front of him at the Olympic tournament and has always performed well for his country. On Thursday, Binnington improved to 13-4 with Team Canada, recording his third career shutout on the international stage.

Feb 12

Jake Neighbours • LW • Blues

Jake Neighbours Available Monday

St. Louis Blues winger Jake Neighbours (upper body) will return to action on Monday against the Nashville Predators. He missed Saturday's loss to Columbus due to an upper-body injury. Neighbours is expected to join the second power-play unit and will skate with Pavel Buchnevich and Jordan Kyrou during even-strength play. It's been a tough season for Neighbours, as health issues have limited him to 42 appearances. He leads the Blues with 13 goals and has tallied 22 points. Although Neighbours scored in his most recent outing, he has finished 12 of his last 17 games without a point, making him an unreliable fantasy option.

Jordan Kyrou • C • Blues

Jordan Kyrou, Jake Neighbours Knocked Out of the Lineup Tuesday

St. Louis Blues forwards Jordan Kyrou (upper body) and Jake Neighbours (lower body) couldn't complete Tuesday's tilt against the Dallas Stars. St. Louis lost Neighbours to a lower-body injury in the first frame, and Kyrou sustained an upper-body injury in the third. The two started the game on the second line alongside Pavel Buchnevich. Injuries have been a constant concern for the Blues up front, and the team will be desperate to have at least one of Neighbours and Kyrou available on Thursday night against the Florida Panthers. If both miss time, Dalibor Dvorsky and Robby Fabbri are potential candidates to fill the top six spots.

Dylan Holloway Remains Out Tuesday

St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway (ankle) won't play on Tuesday against the Dallas Stars. He recently reaggravated an ankle injury and will be sidelined for a fourth consecutive game. While Holloway is considered day-to-day, it's unclear whether he can return to action before the Olympic break. The Blues will replace Otto Stenberg with Robby Fabbri on Tuesday night in the attack, while Jonatan Berggren is expected to continue in a top-line role. After starting well in St. Louis, Berggren has gone scoreless in eight consecutive appearances.

Dylan Holloway Out Friday

St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway (ankle) won't play on Friday night against the Dallas Stars. Holloway recently returned from a high-ankle sprain, but he landed back on the shelf after making just one appearance. Friday's game will be his second consecutive absence. The 24-year-old has returned to St. Louis for a precautionary MRI and is considered day-to-day. Holloway has taken a big step backwards this season, recording only 17 points (eight goals, nine assists) in 34 games. With Holloway unavailable, Jonatan Berggren has moved to the first line. The Blues' attack will also have Mathieu Joseph (elbow) back from a seven-game absence on Friday night.
