Nick Leddy - Posts 20th assistLeddy dished out an assist and blocked four shots in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
ImpactLeddy has now posted assists in back-to-back games, bringing his total for the season to 20 assists in addition to three goals. The 32-year-old blueliner is playing big minutes with 22:11 of ice time through 66 games, but his production remains mediocre for fantasy purposes.

Alexey Toropchenko - Lights lamp against KingsToropchenko scored a goal and dished out two hits across 10:57 of ice time in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
ImpactGetting pucks on net is the name of the game, and Toropchenko showed why when he fired a wrister from the blue line and it snuck by Cam Talbot's blocker. This was his fourth goal in seven games and his 13th goal of the season. The big-bodied winger has averaged 12:19 of ice time this season, so he's not a steady fantasy producer despite the recent surge.

Jake Neighbours - Pots game-winner WednesdayNeighbours scored the game-winning goal in Wednesday's 3-1 victory over the Kings.
ImpactThe 21-year-old gave the Blues a 2-0 lead early in the second period by tapping a bouncing puck past Cam Talbot. Neighbours is up to 21 goals on the season but just 29 points in 66 games, and he's gone fairly cold since mid-February -- over the last 13 games, he's managed just two goals and three points with a minus-6 rating.

Brandon Saad - Reaches 20-goal plateauSaad scored his 20th goal of the season in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
ImpactThe veteran winger gave St. Louis an insurance tally in the third period to reach the 20-goal plateau for the seventh time in his career. Saad has been on a bit of a heater over the last month, and in the last 14 games he's racked up seven goals and 11 points.
