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 Blues' faceoff leader (62.6 percent), by winning 15 of 22 (68.2 percent) draws Saturday.

Blues' Brayden Schenn: Moves to top line
Rotowire
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
Rotowire
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: Completes comeback in overtime
Rotowire
Schenn scored the game-winning goal on a game-high seven shots in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks.
Schenn scored 45 seconds into overtime to complete the Blues' rally from a three-goal deficit. The 33-year-old has played on the third line to begin the season, but his ice time has been more in line with a top-six player, so he should still receive plenty of chances to contribute. Schenn was limited to 20 goals and 46 points in 82 appearances last year, but he's been over the 50-point mark in four of the last six campaigns.

Blues' Brayden Schenn: Goal, assist in win
Rotowire
Schenn scored a power-play goal on three shots and added an assist in Sunday's 6-5 shootout win over the Ducks.
Schenn has four goals and a helper through four games in April after potting just two goals with eight assists over 25 games in February and March combined. The 32-year-old's play has improved, but it's likely too late to get the Blues into the playoffs. He's at 19 goals, 42 points (12 on the power play), 159 shots on net, 168 hits, 52 PIM and a minus-23 rating through 78 appearances in a top-six role.

Blues' Brayden Schenn: First assist in 12 games
Rotowire
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.

Blues' Brayden Schenn: Heating up
Rotowire
Schenn recorded an assist, a blocked shot and three shots on goal during Sunday's 7-2 win over the Canadiens.
Schenn started the season on a concerningly slow pace of just 16 points through 38 games, but the 32-year-old center has turned things around of late, racking up 13 points across the last 13 games. He's on pace to fall short of last year's 65-point mark, but with 13 goals so far, he could certainly reach the 20-goal threshold for the eighth time in his career.

Schenn is thawing out on offense, earning a point for a third straight game. Prior to this week, he had gone 12 contests without a point.
