    I’m a Thomas owner. Trying to peg his upside. H2H multi cat dynasty

    Based on his lack of cat coverage I feel he has less value in my format, but what do people think his scoring upside is/time to reach it? He seems to be pretty highly touted on the boards for a late 1st round pick. Wondering if I was undervaluing him a bit myself.

    He doesnt even shoot a ton at this point but hopefully that will change as he acclimates himself with the league. Im a fan of the player but those cats are not favorable towards him...

    I think he could score 55-60 pts for the next year or two with potential for more after that. The skill is there, and the opportunity will slowly increase over time. I see him as comparable to Fiala. He can be a first-line player capable of 70-75 if/when he gets a chance.

    He's slowly climbing the ranks in STL. I see him as a future 60-65pt guy most seasons in the not too distant future.

    Sure. As I said his lack of cat coverage isn’t great for my setup. Question was more about what his scoring upside is. If he’s 70-80 points there’s still value there. If he is max 60 points I’m gonna fire him into the sun haha

    Thomas is one of my favourite young players in the game.
    But yes, he's more cerebral and not a multi-cat kind of guy.
    I see him really pushing a lot of his game into limiting shots by opposing clubs.
    He'll be a low-grade NHL C1 in 2-3 more years.

    60-65pts is where I see him, touching 70+ twice or thrice in his career.
    But no, he won't be a multi-cat stud. It's just not his game.
    He should get to 200sog in 3-4 years when a coach asks for that out of him.

    If St.Louis loses AP they'll fall behind in games more often, and that's more points to chase for Blues players.
