One game into the 2020-21 St. Louis Blues season, we thought Robert Thomas had arrived. In 60 minutes against the Colorado Avalanche, we saw just about everything we hoped for from this young player.
Thomas was using his speed to get past players and using his shiftiness to duck past them and push toward the net. His passing eye, which we always knew was there, really showed up too.
Thomas finished that game with two assists, both of which were pretty high quality.
