Holl (illness) is expected to return to the Maple Leafs lineup on Monday.

Holl missed Saturday's game due to illness but was back on the ice for Monday's morning skate and is expected to replace Timothy Liljegren in the lineup vs. New York. Holl has a minus-3 rating, one shot, eight blocks and three hits sin 20:38 ATOI in his first two games of the season.

The Blues have re-signed Robert Thomas to a two-year contract.

Thomas followed up a breakout 2020 season with an injury-filled, disappointing 2021 campaign. He finished the season with just 12 points (3G / 9A) in 33 regular-season games but had a better showing in the Blues' short playoff run. Entering his fourth season, Thomas is still stuck behind Ryan O'Reilly and Brayden Schenn on the depth chart, so it's hard to envision him providing anything more than the 0.6 points-per-game we saw from him two years ago.
