Summary
Robert Thomas is officially the new captain of the St. Louis Blues — the 25th in team history — as they enter his ninth season and a pivotal new chapter after losing Brayden Schenn. Drafted in 2017, Thomas was part of the Cup-winning roster and has since evolved into a top-tier scorer with over 80 points and 60 assists in two seasons, earning Hart Trophy votes. He’ll lead alongside alternates Colton Parayko, Jake Neighbours, Philip Broberg, and Dylan Holloway — with rotating “A” wear. With GM Alexander Steen and goalie Joel Hofer anchoring the future, and young talents like Jimmy Snuggerud and Dalibor Dvorsky poised to grow, the 2026-27 season promises transformation. Training camp looms — and the Blues’ momentum is building. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
