Paul scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Oilers.

Paul extended his goal streak to four games and four goals. He hasn't put up an assist in 15 games, but he has seven goals in that span, and he's on place for 26 goals, which would narrowly top the career high of 24 markers he set in 2023-24. Paul has scored more goals than he has delivered helpers in his past two seasons, and it looks like he could do the same again this year. He has 18 goals and 14 assists in 51 games this season.

Thomas scored a goal on five shots, added a power-play assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Kraken.

Thomas' tally in the second period ended up being the game-winner, his third such goal of the campaign. The 25-year-old is riding a seven-game point streak with four goals and seven assists in that span. For the season, the first-line center is up to 16 goals, 47 points (nine on the power play), 112 shots on net, 34 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating across 47 appearances.

Sundqvist scored a power-play goal on two shots and added two assists in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Kraken.

Sundqvist continues to take advantage of his role with the man advantage -- he has five points over his last five games, three of which have come on the power play. It's not an area he has much experience in, but it's a wrinkle head coach Jim Montgomery has added over the last couple of months. Sundqvist is now at five goals, nine assists, 39 shots on net, 63 hits, 34 blocked shots, 28 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 45 appearances in 2024-25, though he remains locked into a bottom-six role at even strength.

Bolduc scored two goals in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Kraken.

Bolduc had the Blues' fourth goal as part of a second-period rally, and he struck again early in the third with the team's last tally. The 22-year-old has three goals and two assists, as well as nine shots on net, over his last five outings. He's doing his part to solidify a spot in the bottom six and on the power play. Bolduc is at eight goals, 20 points, 68 shots on net, 65 hits and a plus-11 rating through 49 appearances this season.

Shore logged an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Red Wings.

Shore set up Jakub Lauko's tally in the first period. With three points over his last eight contests, Shore has at least been steady in a fourth-line role. The 30-year-old is up to four points, 25 shots on net, 50 hits, 24 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating through 36 appearances this season. Shore is a safe bet to remain in the lineup for at least three more games while Ryan Hartman finishes serving his suspension.

Trenin notched an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Red Wings.

Trenin helped out on a Jakub Lauko tally in the first period. With two goals and three helpers over his last seven games, Trenin appears to be a bit more comfortable in his bottom-six role than he was early in the season. He's now at 13 points through 52 contests, a pace slightly better than the 17 points in 76 appearances he had between the Predators and the Avalanche in 2023-24. Trenin has added 57 shots on net, 154 hits, 29 PIM and a plus-5 rating in 2024-25.

Lauko scored a goal and added four hits in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Red Wings.

Lauko missed three games due to a lower-body injury, though the break for the 4 Nations Face-Off helped him avoid a longer absence. The 24-year-old has had an injury-plagued campaign -- this was the third time he's been forced out of the lineup. He hasn't been productive when he plays, contributing six points, 26 shots on net, 63 hits, 27 PIM and a minus-4 rating across 34 appearances.

Rossi scored a power-play goal and added two hits in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Red Wings.

Rossi has scored in three straight games, adding one assist, six PIM, six shots on net and three hits in that span. The 23-year-old opened the scoring Tuesday at 7:17 of the first period. For the season, the center is up to 21 goals -- matching his total from 2023-24 -- and 50 points in just 58 outings. He's added 102 shots on net and a plus-17 rating, and he's proving himself capable of handling top-six minutes on a regular basis.

Kasper notched an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Wild.

Kasper has three points, seven shots and eight hits over three contests since the 4 Nations Face-Off break. The 20-year-old was assigned to AHL Grand Rapids during the break, but that was purely a paper move, as he didn't play with the Griffins. He's been a strong source of offense lately -- he's at 23 points this season, 16 of which he's earned over the last 18 games. He's also contributed 89 shots on net, 98 hits and a minus-7 rating through 53 appearances.

Draisaitl scored a power-play goal Tuesday in a 4-1 loss to Tampa Bay.

Draisaitl scored for the sixth straight game (seven goals) and extended his point streak to nine games and 13 points (eight goals, including four on the power play, and five assists). He remains on top of the NHL's sniper list with 43 goals, and he sits tied with Nathan MacKinnon on the scoring chart with 87 points. Draisaitl's dominant season continues.
