• Blues' Robert Thomas: Suffers fractured ankle

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Thomas will be out for at least six weeks after suffering a fractured ankle against Winnipeg on Tuesday. As a result, the team designated him for injured reserve. Thomas will be out of action until at least early December, though it could certainly be longer considering he will need to get back up to speed once cleared to resume skating. It's a huge blow for both the Blues and Thomas, as the 25-year-old center was rolling early in the season with six points through seven outings. In his stead, both Pavel Buchnevich and Brayden Schenn could be candidates to take over the first-line center role.

The Blues begin a four-game road trip in Toronto on Thursday.

  Thomas scored a goal on two shots and went minus-2 in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Golden Knights. Thomas scored with 4:56 left in regulation, but the Blues weren't able to tie the game. The 25-year-old has found the scoresheet in all three contests this season, picking up a goal, three assists and five shots on net. He continues to center the Blues' top line, and after putting up 26 goals and 60 assists in 82 regular-season contests in 2023-24, Thomas has plenty of fantasy upside.

  Thomas provided two assists and three shots on goal in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks. Thomas set up Justin Faulk for the game-tying goal, and he had a secondary helper on Brayden Schenn's game-winner in overtime. Through two contests, Thomas is already in peak playmaking form with three assists. The 25-year-old center is in a top-line role and should continue to be one of the Blues' most reliable sources of offense.

• Blues' Robert Thomas: Two helpers in overtime win

  10/04/2024 • By RotoWire

  Thomas provided two assists and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars. Thomas set up a Philip Broberg goal in the third period and also found Jordan Kyrou for the game-winner 1:43 into overtime. After taking a large step forward with 26 goals and 60 assists over 82 games last season, Thomas is firmly entrenched as the Blues' No. 1 center. The playmaking pivot should again push for a point-per-game pace while seeing ample power-play time, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to add much outside of the scoring categories.
