Thomas Not On Ice Today
Blues practice is underway and Thomas isn't on the ice.
As mentioned in my article after Game 2, he was walking around the locker room gingerly afterwards.

Bring up Dvo. Was Holloway on the ice?
Re: Thomas Not On Ice Today
Not ideal as far as PP practice goes…but if he’s nicked up…you need to rest him as much as you can with an extra day btw games (2) and (3) and (3) and (4) and hope for the best recovery he can get. Plus…it’s more important that guys like Neighbors, Buch, Schenn, Bolduc and Kyrou practice hitting the net more and finding the back of the net if the Blues are going to make a series of it.
Re: Thomas Not On Ice Today
I think he started this series compromised, still nursing his prior (groin?) injury from that awkward face-off in one of the final games.

Re: Thomas Not On Ice Today
Well, not good but also not surprising. Thomas is clearly hampered. Still confused how he got hurt on that faceoff the last game of the season but if I had to guess, he has a pulled groin or something.
Injuries piling up the wrong time of year. My guess is he plays tomorrow but he’s clearly not 100%.

I thought it was he was doing stick work, not actually skating

Re: Thomas Not On Ice Today
No. He did some light stick handling on his own. Hasn’t been out there with the team. He’s out until further notice as far as I can tell.
Regarding Thomas, they had Joseph in his spot in drills. That tells me he’s expected to play tomorrow. A winger like Joseph is just asking as a placeholder with lines like that.
Texier was on Line 3 so maybe he gets back in the lineup tomorrow.
Re: Thomas Not On Ice Today
Hard to believe Texier and Joseph are better options. Hope he has a tremendous offseason and campseattleblue wrote: ↑23 Apr 2025 12:10 pmDvorsky is playing Game 1 for Springfield today vs. Providence

Texier is as good as gone next year. He hasn’t seen the light of day in foreverBacchk29 wrote: ↑23 Apr 2025 17:23 pmHard to believe Texier and Joseph are better options.

Re: Thomas Not On Ice Today
I very much doubt it, but let’s hope a guy like Texier, if he gets into the lineup Thursday or the game after, actually scores since no one else is very offensive regularly other than perhaps Snuggerud we hope
