Finally, Vladimir Sobotka has come back to St. Louis.

In his first game with the Blues in almost three years, the Czech forward found the back of the net, banging a Jori Lehtera pass into the Colorado Avalanche net.

Sobotka returned from his KHL hiatus earlier this week, signing a three-year contract extension that will kick in next season.

In the meantime, he could prove to be a valuable and unexpected contributor in the postseason.
