Torey Krug - Adds assist in lossKrug notched an assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

ImpactKrug reached the 10-assist mark on the year by setting up Kevin Hayes' first-period marker. It's been a solid stretch lately for Krug, who has five helpers, including three on the power play, over his last seven games. The veteran defenseman is up to 11 points, 57 shots on net, 39 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating through 25 appearances this season, maintaining his spot in the top four and on the first power-play unit.

Brayden Schenn - Registers assist WednesdaySchenn notched an assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

ImpactSchenn had gotten on the scoresheet in just one of his last six games with a three-point effort versus the Sabres on Nov. 30. The 32-year-old center set up a Jordan Kyrou tally in the first period. Schenn's offense has often come in bursts this season -- he has yet to establish a point streak longer than two games. He's produced 15 points, 50 shots, 49 hits, 15 PIM and a minus-9 rating over 25 contests.

Robert Thomas - Produces helper in lossThomas notched an assist and two PIM in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

ImpactThomas had a 12-game point streak earlier in the year, and after a two-game drought, he's responded with two goals and six helpers over his last eight outings. The center is thriving in a top-line role, to the tune of 25 points in as many outings. He's added 51 shots on net, 15 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating while averaging a career-high 20:23 of ice time per game as a key contributor in all situations.

Kevin Hayes - Pots goal in lossHayes scored a goal, added two hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

ImpactHayes has found his scoring touch with four goals and two helpers over his last nine contests. The 31-year-old's improved play got him onto the second line after toiling in a bottom-six role to start the campaign. He's at six tallies, six assists, 39 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 25 appearances overall. Hayes could have more fantasy upside as long as he's playing with Brayden Schenn and Jordan Kyrou.

Jake Neighbours - Lights lamp in lossNeighbours scored a goal on three shots in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

ImpactNeighbours had gone two games without a goal to open December, his longest drought in over two weeks. The 21-year-old had the Blues' first goal in this game, giving him eight tallies and one assist over his last 10 contests. He's up to 10 goals, one assist, 41 shots on net, 37 hits, 18 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 25 contests overall. He could stick in a top-line role as long as his offense is hot, though he's also been converting at a 33.3 percent rate lately, an unsustainable pace for even the best of scorers.
