St. Louis center Robert Thomas exited the Blues’ Tuesday game against the visiting Utah Hockey Club due to a lower-body injury.

He had problems with a leg earlier in the game but continued to play. Thomas’ final shift, in the first minute of the third period, lasted only 13 seconds.

Before leaving, Thomas handed out two assists to extend his points streak to 12 games (four goals, 21 assists).

The 25-year-old owns 21 goals and 60 assists in 70 games this season, as he became the 11th player this season to reach the 60-assist mark. It was also the second year in a row he has produced 60 assists for the Blues, who clinched a Western Conference wild-card spot with their 6-1 victory over Utah.
