At the age of 19, Thomas helped the Blues advance to their first conference final since 1996 by assisting on both goals during Game 7 of the Western Conference Second Round. Afterwards, former Blues player Keith Tkachuk said, “For someone that young, to clearly stand out in a Game 7 from start to finish, was one of the best performances you have ever seen in the National Hockey League, in my opinion.” As the youngest player competing during the Western Conference Final against the San Jose Sharks, he suffered a wrist injury during Game 6 as the Blues beat the Sharks. He returned to the lineup for Game 1 of the 2019 Stanley Cup Finals against the Boston Bruins, but suffered another injury and was out of the lineup until Game 6. His efforts during the postseason helped the Blues win their first Stanley Cup in franchise history. Upon winning the Cup, Thomas’ hometown of Aurora added a sign underneath their city’s welcome sign stating “Home of Robert Thomas, Stanley Cup champion.”

During his rookie season with the London Knights, Thomas was released by the team to allow him to compete with the Canadian national junior team at the 2015 World U-17 Hockey Challenge.

His offensive play also earned him a boost in ranking from 28th to 22nd amongst North American skaters by the NHL Central Scouting Bureau. Thomas shared his surprise at his jump in ranking by saying, “I actually was expecting, from talking to people, to go in the third round…I was talking to a lot of (U.S. schools) at the time, and when I jumped to the second, I was pretty shocked.” He was eventually chosen in the first round, 20th overall, by the St. Louis Blues and invited to their rookie camp over the summer.
