Pius Suter - Nabs helper in return Suter posted an assist in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact Suter returned from a 15-game absence due to an ankle injury, and he centered the third line. He ranked second among Blues forwards with 18:05 of ice time, and since the team is still a bit thin down the middle, there could be room for Suter to land a top-six role. The 29-year-old has managed 15 points, 62 shots on net, 29 hits, 13 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 38 appearances in his first year with the Blues.

Brayden Schenn - Supplies pair of helpers Schenn recorded two assists and five hits in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact Schenn's second helper came on the power play. The 34-year-old has five points over his last four outings. He's been on the wing for the last couple of games, and he's seeing top-line usage while Robert Thomas (leg) is out through the Olympic break. Schenn is up to 12 goals, 12 helpers, six power-play points, 78 shots on net, 123 hits, 25 blocked shots, 47 PIM and a minus-25 rating over 55 appearances.

Tyler Tucker - Finds twine Saturday Tucker scored a goal and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact Tucker had five points over 14 contests in January, including a goal and an assist over his last three games. This was his most productive month of the campaign, largely because he's been able to stay in the lineup without getting healthy scratched. He's now at three goals, 11 points, 53 shots on net, 74 hits, 37 blocked shots, 56 PIM and a minus-7 rating through 50 appearances while filling a bottom-four role.

Jonatan Berggren - Collects pair of points Berggren scored a power-play goal on two shots and added an assist in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact Berggren has three points over his last two games. His uptick in offense should help him stick in the lineup a little better, though he's likely to remain in a middle-six role. The 25-year-old forward is up to seven goals, seven assists, 41 shots on net, 23 hits and a minus-4 rating over 34 outings between the Blues and the Red Wings this season.

Jimmy Snuggerud - Goal, assist in Saturday's loss Snuggerud scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact Snuggerud has two goals and four helpers during his active four-game point streak. A spot on the top line is suiting him well as he surges on offense. The 21-year-old rookie is up to nine goals, 21 points, 93 shots on net, 46 hits, 27 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating over 43 appearances. Snuggerud's not in must-have territory in standard formats, but he's definitely a player to keep an eye on.

Jordan Binnington - Loses sixth straight outing Binnington allowed four goals on 22 shots in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jackets. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Impact Binnington has given up 26 goals on 152 shots (.829 save percentage) during his six-game losing streak. Despite his awful performance, he's maintained a timeshare with Joel Hofer, who has won three of his last six games. Binnington is now 8-16-6 with a 3.60 GAA and an .866 save percentage across 31 outings. He's borderline unplayable in fantasy with those ratios, and the Blues would be justified in giving Hofer a starter's workload for the rest of the campaign. The Blues' last two games before the Olympic break are on the road, in Nashville on Monday and in Dallas on Wednesday.
