Robert Thomas News

Only four weeks after suffering a fractured ankle, expected to keep him out of the lineup for 6-8 weeks, Thomas will return to action on Tuesday against the Minnesota Wild. At the morning skate on Monday, he was skating on the top line with Pavel Buchnevich and Jordan Kyrou. The 25-year-old Thomas had six points (1G/5A) in seven games before his injury.

Thomas was amid an excellent outing on Tuesday, recording two assists in his first 17 shifts before blocking a shot and exiting after recording 15:19 time-on-ice. The 25-year-old Thomas underwent x-rays after the game and, unfortunately, will likely be out of the lineup until at least December after being diagnosed with a fractured ankle. At practice on Wednesday morning, Brayden Schenn occupied Thomas' spot in the center position on the Blues' top line.

Thomas was on fire Tuesday with two assists through his first 17 shifts but was forced to leave the Blues' contest vs. Winnipeg after 15:19 TOI due to a lower-body return and did not return. St. Louis is expected to provide updates in the upcoming days before their next game Saturday vs. Montreal. If the 25-year-old is forced to miss any time, it will be a massive loss for the Blues as he was already up to six points (1G/5A) in his first seven games played.

Thomas has missed the Blues' previous three games due to an upper-body injury and will be a game-time decision Tuesday vs. Philadelphia. The 23-year-old has 17 goals, 46 assists, 101 SOG, 22 PIMs and a -6 plus/minus through 70 games played before his injury.

Thomas left the Blues' previous game after 15:53 TOI due to an upper-body injury and will now miss Thursday's game vs. Chicago. The 23-year-old has 17 goals, 46 assists, 101 SOG, 22 PIMs and a -6 plus/minus through 70 games this season prior to his injury.

Thomas missed the Blues' previous two games due to a lower-body injury but will return to the lineup as they take on the Arizona Coyotes Saturday. The 23-year-old has 12 goals, 31 assists, 73 SOG, 14 PIMs and a -2 plus/minus through 48 games prior to the injury.

Thomas was on the ice briefly this morning but will not play Monday in Winnipeg. This is the second straight game that Thomas has missed, so look for Brayden Schenn to remain on the top line. Monitor Thomas' status coming out of the All Star break, the Blues don't play again until next Saturday.

Thomas suffered a lower-body injury in Thursday's game in Arizona and is questionable to play on Saturday. With Thomas likely out, Brayden Schenn is expected to move up to the top line, and Noel Acciari will move into the top-6.

Thomas missed the Blues' previous game vs. Dallas due to an upper-body injury but will return to the lineup Thursday. The 23-year-old has been one of the more productive St. Louis players' this season, posting four goals, 15 assists and 32 SOG through 21 GP.

Thomas left Saturday's game vs. Florida due to a lower-body injury and will not play Monday due to it being a day-to-day injury. The 23-year-old was having a solid season prior to the injury, scoring four goals and adding 19 points with a -7 plus/minus and 32 SOG through 21 games played.

Thomas has missed three of the last four games with an upper-body injury but is set to play Thursday vs. the Flyers. Thomas will start on the "third" line with Vladimir Tarasenko and Ivan Barbashev on his wings.

Thomas will not play for the third time in four games after suffering a setback with his upper-body injury. The Blues will also be without Vladimir Tarasenko, who is out with an illness.

Thomas missed the last two games with an illness but is expected to replace Vladimir Tarasenko (illness) in the lineup on Saturday. Thomas comes in with four goals and two assists in his last two games.
