St. Louis Blues DFS SPIN
Robert Thomas tallied a goal and an assist in Thursday’s 2-1 victory over Vancouver. Thomas set up Colton Parayko’s tally in the first period before adding a goal in the final frame, beating Thatcher Demko from the slot for his third marker in as many games, putting St. Louis ahead 2-1. The 24-year-old Thomas has been on a tear, tallying six goals and 14 points in his last nine contests. Overall, he’s up to 41 points (16 goals, 25 assists) through 37 games this season.
Carolina Hurricanes DFS SPIN
Brent Burns scored two goals, one on the power play, and added a power-play assist in Friday’s 6-2 win over the Capitals. The veteran blueliner kicked off a comeback from a 2-0 deficit early in the second period, sneaking in off the point and tapping home a slick feed from Andrei Svechnikov. Burns flipped the switch after Christmas — he has three multi-point performances in the last five games, racking up three goals and nine points over that stretch, to break out of a slump that had seen him manage just two helpers over his prior 11 contests.
