Robert Thomas participated in a full team practice at Centene Community Ice Center on Wednesday morning and could be back in the lineup Thursday when the St. Louis Blues wrap up a two-game homestand against the Carolina Hurricanes.
"He got through practice, so he looked good out there," Blues Head Coach Craig Berube said after Wednesday's skate. "I didn't see him really have any issues, which is good."

Thomas awkwardly fell into the boards late in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win against the Florida Panthers. He did not take a shift in the final five minutes of regulation or overtime in that game.
He also was not in the lineup for Monday's 4-1 loss to the Dallas Stars due to what Berube called a lower-body injury.
"Just kind of a weird play," Thomas said of how the injury occurred. "I went into the boards weird. It (didn't seem) too promising right away, but the last couple of days have felt a lot better. I think I got pretty lucky, so I'm very fortunate for that... I'm hoping to be back (Thursday)."
In Wednesday's practice, Thomas was centering a line with Pavel Buchnevich and Vladimir Tarasenko.
Through 21 games this season, Thomas leads the Blues in points (19) and assists (15).
