Inks two-year extension Toropchenko signed a two-year, $5 million contract extension with St. Louis on Monday.

Picks up shorthanded helper Toropchenko distributed an assist, put two shots on net and recorded three hits in Saturday's 2-0 win over Montreal.

Impact Toropchenko picked up the lone helper on Robert Thomas' shorthanded tally when the prior fired a shot that was rebounded in for the score. Overall, Toropchenko has five points, 27 shots on goal, 57 hits and 27 blocks through 27 games this season. Saturday's contest helped him finish back-to-back games with at least one point for the first time this season. The 26-year-old winger has averaged over two minutes per game more than his total for the season, showcasing that the Blues want to get him more involved outside of his checking responsibilities on the fourth line. Toropchenko is trending towards viability in deep fantasy leagues that value category coverage over point production.

Adds pair of points in win Toropchenko scored a goal, registered an assist and placed two shots on net in Friday's 4-3 win over Vegas.

Impact Toropchenko earned first star of the game honors after scoring the team's first goal before later sliding the primary assist on his linemate Oskar Sundqvist's goal in the second. The pair of points was Toropchenko's first two tallies since his return from a leg injury that kept him sidelined for nearly half of December. The 26-year-old winger offers decent category coverage in a limited role, as he has posted four points, 25 shots on goal, 54 hits and 26 blocks through 26 games this season. If he can begin to replicate performances similar to Friday's, he could offer low-end streaming value in deep fantasy leagues that place a premium on banger stats.
