55 Colton Parayko D

Parayko posted two points, three shots on net and a plus-1 rating across 22:56 of ice time in Monday's 5-4 win over the Sharks.

Parayko set up Mike Hoffman's first goal as a member of the Blues in the second period, and he added his second assist of the season on Jordan Kyrou's game-winning snipe in the third frame. The 6-foot-6 blueliner is lauded for his defensive talent more than his offensive production. Head coach Craig Berube continues to utilize him that way, as Parayko has started 56.4 percent of his shifts in the defensive zone thus far.

Parayko scored a pair of goals on a team-leading six shots while adding four blocks and two hits in Thursday's 6-4 round-robin loss to Vegas.

It was an impact performance by the 6-foot-6, 226-pounder, who also led the Blues with 24:27 of ice time. Parayko roofed a shot in tight to give St. Louis a 2-0 lead early in the second period, then scored a wraparound goal on a terrific individual effort to tie the game 3-3 late in the frame. The 27-year-old has scored 10 goals in each of the last two seasons and can have a big impact in multiple categories, as he did Thursday.

Parayko scored his 10th goal of the season in Monday's 2-1 loss to Florida. He also had three shots and two blocks.

Parayko opened the scoring at 11:20 of the second period, finding the net for the fourth time in his last nine games. That put Parayko at the 10-goal mark for the second year in a row, and his 28 points in 63 games matches his point total from the entire 2018-19 season.

Parayko scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Rangers.

After missing practice Monday due to an illness, Parayko looked 100 percent as he opened the scoring for the Blues early in the second period. The blueliner continues to surge, scoring seven goals and 14 points over the last 14 games.

Parayko (illness) took line rushes in warmups and is expected to play against the Rangers on Tuesday, Tom Timmermann of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Parayko missed Monday's practice and was deemed a game-time decision due to an illness, but the 6-foot-6 defenseman is good to go. He averaged 23:42 per game in February, and since the Blues acquired Marco Scandella, the blueliner has posted six points (two goals, four assists) and 24 shots on net over seven games.

Parayko (illness) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's clash with the Rangers, Tom Timmermann of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Parayko was missing from practice Monday due to his illness and now is in doubt for Tuesday's tilt. If the blueliner is unable to suit up, Robert Bortuzzo figures to slot back into the lineup for just the second time in the Blues' previous five tilts. Parayko was outstanding in February, recording 12 points (six goals, six assists) over 14 games while averaging 23:42 per contest.

Parayko didn't practice Monday due to an illness, but head coach Craig Berube said he "should be fine [Tuesday]," Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.

Parayko will join the team during its three-game road trip that starts Tuesday against the Rangers, and Berube is optimistic that the 26-year-old defenseman will be good to go. It'd be a big loss if Parayko can't go, as he averaged 23:42 per game in February and racked up 12 points over 14 contests.

Parayko scored the game-winning goal and had four shots with one hit in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Islanders.

Parayko scored on a wraparound goal with 2:37 left in extra time to secure the win for the Blues. The 26-year-old is enjoying his most offensively productive month of the season with 12 points in 13 games, and he's managed to find the scoresheet in four of the last five contests. He has eight goals and 25 points heading into Saturday's home date with Dallas.

Parayko tallied a goal and two assists with a plus-2 rating, three shots on net, two blocks and one hit in a 5-1 victory over the Stars on Friday.

The three points was a new season high and Parayko's third multi-point performance of February. He has five goals and 10 points with a plus-6 rating in 10 games this month. His shooting percentage in February sits at 14.7 percent, but he's also averaging 3.4 shots on net per game. Parayko has seven goals and 23 points with a plus-8 rating in 55 games this season.

Parayko collected an assist and four blocked shots in Thursday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Golden Knights.

During his four-game point streak, the defenseman has four goals and two assists. Parayko is up to 19 points, 115 shots, 93 blocks and 66 hits in 50 contests this season. He's been due for a surge -- fantasy owners could use the boost as the playoffs approach.

Parayko scored twice on three shots and had a pair of blocks in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to Dallas.

Parayko found the net twice in the opening 11 minutes to give the Blues an early 2-0 lead. He hammered a one-timer on the power play that opened the scoring at 7:18, then stepped into another rocket at 10:49. The big man is starting to heat up, lighting the lamp four times in the last three games after scoring just twice through the end of January. Parayko now has six goals and 18 points in 49 games.

Parayko notched a power-play goal on four shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to Winnipeg. He also had four hits and two blocks.

Parayko was stationed at the left faceoff dot when a Robert Thomas shot ricocheted off the post right to Parayko, who had an empty net to shoot at. It was just the fourth goal of the season and first with the man advantage for Parayko, who scored 10 times in 2018-19, including four on the power play.

Parayko scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Hurricanes.

Parayko assisted on a Zach Sanford goal and scored one of his own in a span of 3:23 in the second period. The defenseman hadn't gotten onto the scoresheet since Dec. 12, a span of 13 games interrupted by injury. The 26-year-old now has 15 points, 107 shots on goal, 60 hits and 85 blocked shots in 47 appearances.

Parayko (upper body) skated 19:37 with two blocked shots and two PIM in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Canucks.

It was a challenging game all around for the Blues, and Parayko was not exempt. The defenseman remains at 13 points to go with 77 blocked shots, 56 hits, 94 shots on goal and a plus-3 rating in 43 appearances after his seven-game absence with the injury.

Parayko (upper body) will return for Monday's contest in Vancouver.

Parayko missed seven games since being placed on injured reserve after a Jan. 2 loss to Colorado. The 26-year-old blueliner should slide back into the top-four role that he's laid claim to for the last few seasons. He has 13 points in 42 games and has averaged 22:49 of ice time.

Parayko (upper body) is nearing a return to the lineup, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Coach Craig Berube wasn't specific about when Parayko would return. The defenseman has missed seven games with the injury. He'll have to be activated from injured reserve prior to entering the lineup. The Blues return from their bye week against the Canucks on Monday.

Parayko (upper body) was placed on injured reserve retroactive to Jan. 2.

Parayko can be activated at any point, but this move keeps a roster spot open for Niko Mikkola since Carl Gunnarsson (arm) has been lifted from IR. It's unlikely that Parayko is ready for Wednesday's matchup versus the Flyers, and coach Craig Berube has already expressed that he doesn't feel the need to rush Parayko back into the lineup until he's 100 percent since the Blues, especially Mikkola, are playing well. Don't be surprised if the 26-year-old Parayko is out until after the All-Star break.

Parayko (upper body) won't play in Monday's game versus the Ducks, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Parayko was a game-time call Saturday and seems like he's on the brink of returning, but the team's blue line has played well enough without him that there's no reason to rush him back. Coach Craig Berube said there's a good chance Parayko returns before the All-Star break. Niko Mikkola will stay in the lineup in Parayko's place.

Parayko (upper body) will not be in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rangers.

Parayko will miss his fourth consecutive game while dealing with this upper-body injury. The 26-year-old blueliner has 13 points in 42 games this season. His eventual return will have a bigger impact on the Blues than for his fantasy owners.

Parayko (upper body) will be a game-time call versus the Rangers on Saturday. Coach Craig Berube told reporters, "We've got extra D and we don't need to rush him," Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Parayko has already missed three contests as a result of his upper-body injury and could be sidelined for another Saturday. The Alberta native was stuck in a 15-game goalless streak prior to getting hurt, managing just one helper over that stretch.
