Saad scored two goals, one short-handed, in Tuesday's 6-5 shootout win over the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
It's the first multi-goal performance of the season for the 30-year-old winger, while the shortie was his second of the campaign. Saad's offense has become one-dimensional this season, and while he's up to 10 goals in 31 games and remains on pace for his seventh career 20-goal campaign, he's added only three assists.

Saad scored an empty-net goal in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Saad's empty-net tally, his first goal in five games, capped the Blues' 3-1 victory. The 30-year-old winger hasn't produced much yet this season despite playing on St. Louis' top power-play unit. Saad now has eight goals and three assists in 29 games this season.

Saad logged an assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Friday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Saad set up Noel Acciari's go-ahead goal midway through the third period. Later in the frame, Saad took a hooking penalty that led to the Golden Knights' equalizer. Mixed results are nothing new for the winger, who has two goals and two helpers through 12 outings in December. He's at 10 points, 49 shots and a minus-6 rating through 27 contests this season while often seeing middle-six usage.

Saad scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Saad was the recipient of a gift in the third period, as Connor Mackey lost the puck in his own zone. The 30-year-old Saad made no mistake on the shot, netting his second goal in the last four games and his seventh tally of the season. He's at nine points, 43 shots and a minus-4 rating through 24 contests overall, though he's still seeing top-six usage despite the relative lack of results.

Saad provided a shorthanded goal in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
Saad's marker came at 18:24 of the third period, and gave the Blues a 2-1 lead. Unfortunately for St. Louis, that late lead didn't hold. It was Saad's sixth goal and eighth point in 21 games this season. The 30-year-old had been limited to just an assist in his previous five contests.

Saad scored a goal on four shots in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Saad got a piece of a Josh Leivo shot to net the Blues' lone goal in the third period. The 30-year-old Saad has two goals and one assist in three contests since returning from a one-game absence due to an illness. The winger is at five goals, one assist, 26 shots and a minus-3 rating in 15 outings this season. The Blues continue to look for productive line combinations, and that has Saad seeing top-six minutes despite his lackluster overall numbers, though his recent play has warranted an increased role.

Saad (illness) will be back in the lineup Friday against Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Saad sat out Wednesday's tilt versus the Sabres, but he'll return to the top line with Vladimir Tarasenko and Ryan O'Reilly against the Lightning. It has been a tough season for Saad, who has only three goals in 12 games after a 24-goal, 49-point season in 78 games last year.

Saad scored a goal on five shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Saad's thaw from an ice-cold start to the season continued Monday, as he now has three goals in his last three games. That accounts for all of his offense through eight contests. It should be enough to keep him in a top-six role, especially since the Blues have won each game he's scored in this year. The veteran winger has added 13 shots on net, a minus-1 rating and six hits.
