US EditionBlues Slip Past Sharks on Robert Thomas' OT Goal
Robert Thomas scored four goals in three games since returning from injury, leading the Blues to their third straight win despite recent trades and being undermanned on defense.
- On Friday, Robert Thomas scored 54 seconds into overtime to give the St. Louis Blues a 3-2 win at SAP Center, San Jose, hours after trading captain Brayden Schenn.
- After trading veterans, the St. Louis Blues entered deadline day near the bottom of the Western Conference and sent Brayden Schenn and Justin Faulk away, leaving only five healthy defensemen for the game.
- On the decisive play, Philip Broberg put a shot on net that hit the crossbar and Robert Thomas knocked in the rebound, scoring his fourth goal in three games while Jordan Binnington made 23 saves.
- San Jose's loss left them 3-1-1 on their homestand, and Ryan Warsofsky said, `We didn't have our best tonight. Couldn't make a play, too many odd-man rushes. Yeah, we just weren't good enough tonight.`
- Sharks GM Mike Grier felt he kept the core together for the stretch run, and Sherwood signed a five-year, $28.75 million extension this week, with the team hosting the New York Islanders Saturday night.
