Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Provides assist
Rotowire
Bolduc notched an assist in Wednesday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Stars.
Bolduc finished the campaign with three goals and two assists over the last five games. The 21-year-old winger held his own in his first taste of NHL action, racking up nine points and 38 shots on net over 25 contests. He is eligible for the AHL playoffs, but it is unlikely AHL Springfield will qualify. Bolduc will likely be reassigned to the Thunderbirds soon.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Two-point effort Wednesday
Rotowire
Bolduc produced a goal and an assist in Wednesday's 5-2 win over Chicago.
He potted St. Louis' fourth goal just before the seven-minute mark in the first period before helping to set up a Robert Thomas tally in the third. Bolduc has moved into a top-six role over the last week as the Blues try to find a combination that will allow them to catch the Golden Knights for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference, and the 21-year-old rookie has responded with two goals and three points in the last two games. The 2021 first-round pick will likely get every opportunity to stay hot over the final few games of the regular season.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Strikes early in shootout win
Rotowire
Bolduc scored a goal on three shots in Sunday's 6-5 shootout win over the Ducks.
Bolduc scored just 11 seconds into the game. He has two tallies over his last five contests, but playing time is not guaranteed for the 21-year-old forward, who has often been given a bottom-six assignment. He's up to three goals, five points, 30 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through 21 contests overall.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Notches second assist of season
Rotowire
Bolduc posted an assist, a shot on net and two PIM in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.
The 2021 first-round pick now has two assists over the last three games after enduring an eight-game drought. Bolduc's ice time is limited, as he has surpassed 12 minutes of ice time just once this season. The Blues appear dedicated to giving Bolduc some run with the big club, but the 21-year-old likely needs more seasoning in the AHL before making the jump full time.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Pots first NHL goal
Rotowire
Bolduc scored the Blues' only goal Saturday in a 6-1 loss to the Red Wings.
In his second NHL game, Bolduc scored his first career goal midway through the second period by taking a pass out of the corner from Brandon Saad and snapping the puck past Alex Lyon. The 17th overall pick in the 2021 Draft, Bolduc posted big numbers in the QMJHL but had only eight goals and 23 points in 48 games for AHL Springfield prior to his promotion to the NHL on Tuesday. The 21-year-old has talent, but this early into his pro career, he's likely not ready to make a consistent impact for the Blues.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Elevated from minors
Rotowire
Bolduc was recalled from AHL Springfield on Tuesday.
Bolduc has been putting up decent numbers in the minors with eight goals and 15 helpers in 48 games for the Thunderbirds. Selected 17th overall in the 2021 NHL Draft, the 20-year-old center could be an option against the Islanders on Thursday, which would mark his NHL debut. If Bolduc does play, it could come at the expense of Sammy Blais.
