Blues' Josh Leivo: Manages helper Thursday
Leivo provided an assist and added two shots on goal in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.
Leivo rejoined the lineup after sitting as a healthy scratch for two games. He helped out on Colton Parayko's rally-starting goal in the second period. Leivo now has four goals and 11 helpers through 42 contests this season, and he's added 80 shots on net, 48 hits and an even plus-minus rating. He's still likely to remain in a bottom-six role when he's in the lineup.

Blues' Josh Leivo: Registers assist in loss
Leivo recorded an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Jets.
Leivo set up Nikita Alexandrov's goal in the third period. Playing primarily in a bottom-six role in January, Leivo had three points and a minus-2 rating over 11 contests this month. He was a healthy scratch three times, so it's clear he has yet to solidify his place in the lineup over halfway through the season. The winger is at 13 points, 71 shots on net, 46 hits, 21 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 38 games.

The 29-year-old Leivo has 12 points, 61 shots on net, 42 hits, 14 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 33 contests this season. He's been confined to a bottom-six role lately, providing some energy and depth scoring while the Blues are tested by injuries up front.

He's brought some energy in a top-six role, which saw him skate alongside Ryan O'Reilly and Brayden Schenn on Thursday as the Blues look for answers to their consistency problem.

Blues' Josh Leivo: Opens Tuesday's scoring
Leivo scored a goal, earned an assist and generated a team-high five shots during Tuesday's 7-4 victory over the host Islanders.
By notching his first goal in 16 games and posting a plus-2 rating Tuesday, Leivo broke a string of three consecutive pointless outings with a minus-1 rating in each. The 29-year-old left winger scored off a 2-on-1 breakaway Tuesday, beating goalie Ilya Sorokin with a blocker-side shot at 17:13 of the first period. Also credited with a second-period assist, Leivo earned his first two-point game since Jan. 21.

Blues' Josh Leivo: Offers helper in loss
Leivo picked up an assist and added six shots on goal in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Stars.
Leivo picked off a clearance from Stars goalie Scott Wedgewood and put the puck toward the net, where Brandon Saad tipped it in. This was Leivo's second assist in the last two games, and he's up to six helpers in 12 outings this season. The 29-year-old winger doesn't have a long track record of scoring success, but he's looked good with Saad and Ryan O'Reilly as linemates lately. Leivo has added 25 shots on net, 12 hits and a plus-3 rating this season, and he should be able to stick in the lineup if he keeps contributing.

Blues' Josh Leivo: Hands out assist
Leivo notched an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights.
Leivo has picked up both of his assists in the last two games. He set up Ryan O'Reilly on the game-winning goal Saturday. Leivo appears to have a steadier path to playing time in his second NHL stint this year. He's added eight shots, six hits and an even plus-minus rating through five contests, though he could have some appeal in deep formats if he can see his even-strength minutes on the second line.

Hurricanes' Josh Leivo: Up to NHL

Whether Leivo gets into the lineup against the Leafs on Monday will likely depend on the health of Teuvo Teravainen (lower body) who is considered a game-time decision. If Leivo does play, it will likely be in a bottom-six role, so fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting a big offensive performance out of him.
