Blues' Brayden Schenn: Generates assist in loss
Brayden Schenn had an assist, one shot on net and two PIM in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Montreal.Schenn's drive to the net in the second period was rebuffed by Sam Montembeault, but the ensuing sequence let to Jake Neighbours' game-tying tally. The assist was Schenn's second in as many games and third over the last four. He had practiced on the top line earlier this week, presumably as a potential replacement for Robert Thomas (lower body), but he's been back home centering the second line in the two games since. Schenn did a reasonable impression of Thomas, the St. Louis Blues' faceoff leader (62.6 percent), by winning 15 of 22 (68.2 percent) draws Saturday.

Blues' Brayden Schenn: Moves to top line
Brayden Schenn centered the top line at Wednesday's practice, Jeremey Rutherford of The Athletic reports.Schenn bounced between the second and third lines through seven contests but now looks like the replacement for Robert Thomas, who is expected to miss at least six weeks with a fractured ankle. The club likely hopes Schenn, who has one goal on 21 shots (4.8 shooting percentage) and one assist, can spark a team that is starving for offense thus far, ranking 22nd with 2.71 goals per game.

Blues' Brayden Schenn: Chips in with assist
Brayden Schenn notched an assist, three shots on goal, two hits and two PIM in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Hurricanes.Schenn has two points through six contests this season. He's been listed on the third line, but with 17-plus minutes of ice time in five of his six appearances, he's functioned more as a top-six forward. The veteran center has added 19 shots on net, 17 hits, eight blocked shots and a minus-3 rating. Schenn maintains a decent shot volume and racks up hits, but he needs to display a little more consistency on offense.

Blues' Brayden Schenn: First assist in 12 games
Brayden Schenn dished out a power-play assist and fired a shot on net in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.Schenn was on a 10-game point drought before scoring against the Wild on Saturday and notching an assist Sunday. It certainly helps that he was bumped up to the top line next to Robert Thomas and Jordan Kyrou. The 32-year-old Schenn is having a down year with just 33 points through 68 games, and his minus-21 rating is just salt in the wound for fantasy purposes. Still, his spot in the top six should be secure for the remainder of the season, providing consistent upside even if it's flaky.
