Thomas scored an empty-net goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas has two goals and four assists over seven games since he returned from an ankle injury. The 25-year-old center set up a Dylan Holloway tally late in the second period before scoring the empty-netter in the third. Thomas is up to three goals, 12 points, 29 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 14 outings. He continues to play in a top-line role, and considering he's shooting just 10.3 percent, he could have a little room for improvement.

Thomas scored the game-winning goal in a 3-0 victory over New Jersey on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas caught Jacob Markstrom dozing just nine seconds into the game with a one-timer from the left circle. He tied the Blues record for the second-fastest goal scored to start a game. The goal was Thomas' first since his return from injury a week ago. He has four points, including three assists, in five games since that return, and he has 10 points (two goals, eight assists) in 12 games this season. Watch for Thomas' goal total start to climb as his 7.7 shooting percentage climbs toward his 14.5 percent career average.

Thomas provided a power-play assist and two PIM in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas has returned to his playmaking roots, earning an assist in each of his first three games back from a broken ankle. The 25-year-old is up to one goal, eight assists (three on the power play), 19 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 10 appearances this season. He's been able to replicate his shooting volume from 2023-24, so the goals should eventually follow even if he's not finding much luck right now.

Thomas posted an assist in Thursday's 3-2 shootout win over San Jose.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas registered a helper on Jordan Kyrou's sixth goal of the season in the middle frame. Thomas has registered an assist in each of his last two appearances after missing 12 games due to a fractured ankle, and he's riding a three-game point streak (four assists) dating back prior to his injury. The 25-year-old has produced one goal and seven assists over nine outings this season.

Thomas notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas missed 12 games due to an ankle fracture. He returned in just under a month after being given a six-week timeline, and his presence in the lineup should elevate the Blues' offense across the board. The center has seven points (one goal, six assists), 14 shots on net, eight blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through eight contests overall. Thomas also won 14 of 23 faceoffs Tuesday and has a 62.4 percent win rate at the dot this season, by far the best mark of his career, albeit with plenty of the campaign left to play.

Thomas (ankle) will be activated from injured reserve ahead of his return to the lineup Tuesday against Minnesota, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas will play on the top line and first power-play unit following a 12-game absence. He has generated one goal, five assists, 12 shots on net and six blocked shots through seven appearances this season. The Blues put Kasperi Kapanen on waivers Monday to clear a roster spot, and Mathieu Joseph will be a healthy scratch against the Wild.

Thomas (ankle) will accompany the Blues on their upcoming three-game road trip, which begins with Thursday's game in Buffalo, so that he can skate with the club, per Lou Korac of NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas hasn't played since Oct. 22 due to a fractured ankle, and his return isn't believed to be close, but it's still encouraging that he'll travel with the team. He has a goal and six points in seven appearances in 2024-25.

Thomas will be out for at least six weeks after suffering a fractured ankle against Winnipeg on Tuesday. As a result, the team designated him for injured reserve.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas will be out of action until at least early December, though it could certainly be longer considering he will need to get back up to speed once cleared to resume skating. It's a huge blow for both the Blues and Thomas, as the 25-year-old center was rolling early in the season with six points through seven outings. In his stead, both Pavel Buchnevich and Brayden Schenn could be candidates to take over the first-line center role.

Thomas (lower body) didn't finish Tuesday's game versus the Jets, and there was no update on his status after the contest, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas had two assists prior to his exit, giving him six points through seven outings this season. As the Blues' first-line center, his potential absence looms large moving forward. The Blues begin a four-game road trip in Toronto on Thursday.

Thomas scored a goal on two shots and went minus-2 in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas scored with 4:56 left in regulation, but the Blues weren't able to tie the game. The 25-year-old has found the scoresheet in all three contests this season, picking up a goal, three assists and five shots on net. He continues to center the Blues' top line, and after putting up 26 goals and 60 assists in 82 regular-season contests in 2023-24, Thomas has plenty of fantasy upside.
