• Blues' Brandon Saad: Gathers assist

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Saad notched an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Lightning. Saad snapped a three-game dry spell when he helped out on Jordan Kyrou's third-period tally, which stood as the game-winner. While Saad has been listed on the first line, his ice time has declined over the last week, reaching a season-low 13:29 in Tuesday's win. The 32-year-old is at five points, 19 shots on net and a minus-1 rating over 10 appearances this season. He is more of a secondary scorer, so fantasy managers may want to stream him rather than roster him on a regular basis.

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Saad scored two goals in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Jets. He was the only St. Louis skater to beat Connor Hellebuyck on the night, shoveling home rebounds in the first and third periods, but Winnipeg dominated the second. Saad's first tally gave him 500 career points, but the goals were also his first points of 2024-25 after he missed the first three games of the season due to the birth of his child.

He registered 26 goals, 42 points and 144 shots on net in 82 contests during the 2023-24 regular season.

• Blues' Brandon Saad: Not traveling with team

  10/07/2024 • By RotoWire

  Saad is back in St. Louis for the birth of his child and was placed on non-roster injured reserve Monday. Saad will be sidelined against Seattle on Tuesday and probably should be considered a doubt for the whole three-game road trip. Even once he links up with the team, the veteran winger will likely play in a middle-six role, though he could still see minutes with the man advantage.

• Blues' Brandon Saad: Snags helper in win

  04/15/2024 • By RotoWire

  Saad garnered an assist in Sunday's 4-1 victory against the Kraken. Saad is still stuck in a five-game goal drought dating back to April 4 versus Nashville. During that stretch, the 31-year-old winger has generated two helpers and nine shots on goal. The Blues have just one game remaining this season, so Saad won't be setting any new career highs, though he did get back over the 40-point threshold with 26 goals and 16 assists over 81 contests after recording 37 points in 71 games last year.
