2 months agoSt. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas (illness) is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Utah Hockey Club. He left Saturday's practice early because he wasn't feeling well and may not be in game shape against Utah. Despite missing 12 games with a broken ankle, Thomas is ranked third on the team with 36 points. He has amassed 12 goals and 24 assists in 40 appearances. Defenseman Colton Parayko (illness) is also questionable for Sunday and might miss a second consecutive game. Jake Neighbours could reclaim a top-six spot if Thomas is unable to play on Sunday, while Philip Broberg should stay on the first defensive pairing as Parayko's replacement.

Overall, the 25-year-old has tallied 33 points (11 goals, 22 helpers) across 31 games this season.

Thomas opened the scoring on an unassisted wrist shot goal in the opening minute which beat netminder Juuse Saros.

Thomas has now posted multi-point performances in back-to-back outings. Since the start of December (13 games) Thomas has only been held off the scoresheet on one occasion and has posted six multi-point outings over this span. Fantasy managers should continue to expect the 25-year-old to continue to provide solid offensive production playing on the top unit in St. Louis.
