Barbashev has returned to St. Louis to be present for the birth of his first child.
EDGE Analysis
Once he's ready to return to Edmonton, Barbashev will have to self-quarantine in his hotel room for at least four days, so at this point it's safe to assume he'll miss the Blues' final two round-robin games at a minimum. The 24-year-old winger fired two shots on goal and dished out seven hits in 11:48 of ice time during Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Avalanche.

Barbashev had a goal, four hits and two shots in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Barbashev actually tallied the goal Feb. 11, prior to Jay Bouwmeester suffering a cardiac episode that resulted in the game being rescheduled. Bizarre scoring quirk aside, Barbashev will officially get credit for it now, which gives him 26 points in 69 appearances this year. That matches his career high from last season. The Russian forward has added 144 hits and 75 shots on net.

Barbashev scored a pair of goals on four shots and dished two hits in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
The game was scoreless until Barbashev tallied at 9:21 of the second period. He added an insurance marker in the third. The Russian forward is up to 24 points, 66 shots and 125 hits through 58 contests this year. Barbashev may occupy a fourth-line role, but his physicality and modest offense could make his useful in deeper formats.

Last year, he produced a career-high 26 points, but the second-round pick from 2014 looks poised to reach new heights in 2019-20.

He's reached the scoresheet in three of his last four games, collecting a goal and three assists in that stretch. The 24-year-old has put up his points in bunches this season, with lengthy dry spells in between, and owns six goals and 13 assists in 44 games.

Barbashev notched an assist in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Barbashev was on an eight-game pointless streak, but he set up Oskar Sundqvist late in the first period to put the Blues up 3-0. The 24-year-old has accrued five goals and 16 points through 41 games, and he looks poised to match or exceed last year's 26-point total. However, his main contributions are in the real-life form, as he's an effective penalty-killer with a knack for physicality (90 hits).
