Brouwer assisted on two goals and was plus-3 in Friday night's 6-5 loss to the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
The Blues were overwhelmed by a desperate Boston team during the first two periods, but had a little fight of their own, scoring three times in the third period. Brouwer assisted on two of those goals in the come-back effort, continuing his strong finish to the season. The right-winger has registered 11 points (four goals, seven assists) in the past 11 games and stands at 36 points with four games to play. His line may be without talented rookie Robby Fabbri (ankle) the next few games, but Brouwer still skates with a producing Paul Stastny (one goal, one assist, plus-3 on Friday), so there will be an opportunity for him to reach the 40-point mark.

Brouwer tallied a goal and a hit in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer has now recorded points in seven of his last eight games, with three goals and five assists in that span. He's been pretty active overall in those games, as he's also registered 18 shots on goal and 17 hits in that span. While he won't get close to the 43 points he put up the last two seasons, he's still got a shot at getting close to 40 by season's end.

Brouwer contributed two assists in Friday's win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
The Blues clinched a playoff berth Friday and Brouwer has played a big part. The 30-year-old has racked up three goals and eight points in his last eight games and is thriving on the second line with Paul Stastny. He's scored five times on the power play and has helped fantasy goers with 62 PIM. Take a look at him in deeper leagues, as the Blues are rolling and Brouwer is seeing decent minutes in a top-six role.

Brouwer notched his fifth power-play goal of the season, which turned out to be the game-winner, in Saturday night's 3-0 win over Vancouver.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer, who added two hits and three blocked shots to the win, now has four points in his last four games. He's been a nice addition to the Blues this season, providing a secondary scorer with 15 goals and 15 assists. The 10-year veteran has benefited from skating on a line with gifted playmakers Paul Stastny (30 assists) and Robby Fabbri (19 assists), enabling him finish scoring chances at 12.3 percent clip.

Brouwer chipped in two assists in a 7-4 loss to Calgary on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The pair of helpers give Brouwer 15 to go with 14 goals in his first season in St. Louis, where he has fit right in for the most part as a source of secondary scoring. He's off the pace of the 43 points he put up in each of the last two seasons in Washington, but the Blues just dont score at the same frequency as Alex Ovechkin and Co.

Brouwer netted a power-play goal and put up nine hits while facing the Blackhawks on Wednesday. He also scored a clutch goal in the shootout stanza, helping the Blues to a 3-2 win.
EDGE Analysis
Blues fan or not, it might be worth your time to go back and watch Brouwer mow down the opposition and flash late-game heroics. He's a fine example of how a husky skater can use that size to his advantage and make an impact. The downside with Brouwer from a fantasy angle is that he's clunky on his skates and often goes through deep stretches without points. Brouwer's spotted the scoresheet to the tune of 26 points in 68 games, limiting his appeal to deeper leagues.

Brouwer had four hits and scored the Blues' lone goal, on the power play, in Thursday night's 2-1 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer received a healthy bump in power-play minutes, finishing with 2:31 TOI, second highest among the team's forwards. With Alex Steen (upper body) out of commission for at least another three weeks, there's time available on the power play for others. Brouwer's been an inconsistent point-producer this season, but he ranks fifth on the team in goals (12) and gets 1:47 power-play TOI per game.

Brouwer had an assist and four shots on net in Saturday night's 6-4 win over the Coyotes. He had gone five straight without a point and just two shots.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old right-winger had a nasty, unproductive stretch from November to January, which has tamped down on his scoring pace, relative to his previous six years with Washington and Chicago. Additionally, the Blues aren't using Brouwer like he had been used in those previous stops. As a member of the Blues, Brouwer is at a career-low 41 percent in offensive-zone starts.

Brouwer had a goal and assist on the power play in Saturday night's 4-1 win over Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer's getting time on the second-unit of the Blues' power play, ranking seventh on the team in power-play TOI, but Saturday's points were his first since Nov. 12 on the man advantage. He's experienced a drop off in his first season with the Blues, largely due to a 25-game stretch from the middle of November to early January when he had just two points, but he's righted himself since with nine points in 14 games.

Brouwer netted the lone tally in Tuesday's defensive battle with the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Brouwer has not met expectations in his first season with the Blues, registering 21 points in 53 contests, well off his pace from the 2014-15 campaign. Tuesday's outing saw the winger's ice time drop off, playing over a minute and a half less compared to his season average of 17:19. Overall, the 30-year-old's inconsistency makes him a risky start.
