Lights lamp in Saturday's win Blais scored a goal and added two PIM in Saturday's 7-6 win over the Sharks.
Impact Blais scored at 3:34 of the second period, continuing a back-and-forth battle between the teams that began in the first. The goal was Blais' second of the year -- he's added two helpers, eight PIM and 32 hits through 11 contests. The physical winger has mostly worked in a third-line role, but his scoring output limits his fantasy value to deeper formats.

Physical in return Blais (COVID-19 protocols) had five hits and one shot in a 3-0 loss to the Kings on Monday.
Impact Blais missed Saturday's game against San Jose after what turned out to be a false positive COVID-19 test. He was back in the lineup against Los Angeles on Monday and logged just under 14 minutes of ice time. The 24-year-old winger has one goal and two assists in nine games this season.

Back in action Monday Blais has a false positive COVID-19 test, and he'll return to the lineup for Monday's game versus the Kings, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Impact Blais is slated to play on the second line with Brayden Schenn and Mike Hoffman. The 24-year-old injects a physical presence to the lineup -- he dished out 155 hits over 40 games last year -- but he has modest offensive upside with three points through eight games this season.

Added to COVID-19 list Blais was placed in the NHL's COVID-19 protocol Saturday, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.
Impact Blais is the first player on the Blues to be placed in the league's virus protocol this year. He'll sit out Saturday's game versus the Sharks, and it's uncertain when he'll be available next. The Blues are dealing with numerous injuries, so their new lineup likely won't be clear until game time.

Leads team with five hits Blais (undisclosed) posted five hits, two shots on goal and 14:21 of ice time in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Sharks.
Impact Blais missed four games with the injury. It didn't hamper his usual playing style in his return, as the 24-year-old winger brought plenty of physicality. He has three points, 19 hits, six shots on net and six PIM through eight outings this season. Expect Blais to work in the bottom six when he's in the lineup.

All clear Thursday Blais (undisclosed) will be in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Sharks, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
Impact Blais will make his return to the lineup for the first time since Feb. 6, as he's missed the past four games. Prior to getting hurt, the 24-year-old winger registered one goal on two shots, two assists and 13 hits in five outings while averaging 11:09 of ice time. Blais will return to the lineup on the team's third line for Thursday's game.

Game-time decision Blais (undisclosed) will be a game-time call against the Sharks on Thursday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Prior to getting hurt, the 24-year-old winger registered one goal on two shots, two assists and 13 hits in five outings while averaging 11:09 of ice time. If Blais does get back into the lineup, it will likely be in a bottom-six role with Austin Poganski the most likely candidate to be scratched.

Good to go Blais (undisclosed) will play in Saturday's game against the Coyotes, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.
Impact Blais was considered a game-time decision, but after taking line rushes on the fourth line in warmups, he's on track to play. The 24-year-old is lauded more for his physical presence than his offensive upside, but he has nevertheless recorded three points and 12 hits through six games.

Considered game-time decision Blais (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Saturday's game against the Coyotes, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.
Impact Blais missed Friday's practice, and his final status won't be determined until warmups start. With Zach Sanford (illness) and Tyler Bozak (upper body) both ruled out, Mackenzie MacEachern was recalled from the taxi squad to add depth in case Blais can't go.

Collects first two assists Blais had a pair of assists and added two shots and one hit in Tuesday's 4-3 win over Arizona.
Impact Blais drew the primary helper on back-to-back St. Louis goals, setting up Mike Hoffman late in the first period and Justin Faulk early in the second. That's a nice night's work for the third-liner, who received just over 11 minutes of playing time. Blais has one goal and two assists with a plus-4 rating in five games this season.

Responsible for game-winner Blais scored a goal, doled out three hits and went plus-2 in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Ducks.
Impact Blais' tally at 14:59 of the second period gave the Blues their first lead of the game, and they never looked back. The 24-year-old has been in and out of the lineup so far this season, as he was suspended for two games during the opening week and has also sat as a healthy scratch three times. Blais has a goal, nine hits, a plus-3 rating and four PIM through four appearances.

Back in lineup Blais (suspension) had one shot on goal and logged 8:06 of ice time in Wednesday's 2-1 shootout loss to San Jose.
Impact Blais returned from a two-game suspension and was slotted on the left side of the Blues' fourth line. He received a team-low 12 shifts and didn't make much of a dent on the scoresheet. The 24-year-old had six goals and seven assists in 40 games last year and is strictly a bottom-six role player at this stage.
JANUARY 20 • ROTOWIRE
Eligible to play Wednesday Blais has served his two-match ban and will be available against the Sharks on Wednesday.
Impact Blais figures to jump into a fourth-line role over Kyle Clifford if he does get into Wednesday's contest, which means fantasy players shouldn't be expecting him to log much more than the 9:30 of ice time he recorded Opening Night against Colorado. The 24-year-old winger could be in and out of the lineup all year as a healthy scratch, making him a low-end fantasy option at best.
