He has a 3.21 GAA and .873 SV% in 12 contests this season (4-5-2). The Blues enter Friday's contest as -130 home favorites against a Flyers team with an 8-5-2 record.

The Blues have been a major disappointment early in the 2025-26 season, with a 6-8-3 record, but have points in three straight (2-0-1) and will likely turn to Binnington on Friday against the Philadelphia Flyers. The 32-year-old Binnington has struggled this season but was excellent in his most recent outing, saving 38 of 40 shots (.950 SV%) in a 3-2 win over the Calgary Flames.

The 32-year-old Binnington will return to the crease on Tuesday against the Calgary Flames, looking to improve on an ugly 3.54 GAA and .859 SV% in 11 appearances this season (3-5-2). The Blues enter the action on Tuesday as -145 home favorites against a Flames team that has been shut out in two straight games (0-2-0).

Sundqvist was limited to 7:43 time-on-ice in the Blues' 6-1 loss to the Washington Capitals last Wednesday, exiting the game with an undisclosed injury. The 31-year-old Sundqvist has five points (0G / 5A) in eight games this season. He returns from a two-game absence on Tuesday when the Blues face off against the Calgary Flames.

Joseph has been a regular for the Blues this season, playing 15 of 16 games, but will be sidelined on Tuesday against the Calgary Flames due to a lower-body injury. The 28-year-old Joseph is averaging 12:41 time-on-ice and has six points (2G / 4A) this season.

Texier played 12:23 in Thursday's game in Buffalo, but will be replaced by Jordan Kyrou, who re-enters the lineup tonight. Texier has just one assist in eight games this season.

Kyrou was a healthy scratch on Thursday, but will replace Alexandre Texier in the lineup on Saturday. After a reset, Kyrou will re-enter the lineup on the Blues' top line with Robert Thomas and Brayden Schenn, and comes into Saturday with eight points (4G / 4A) in 14 games this season.

Kessel will play in place of Logan Mailloux, who is a healthy scratch for Thursday's game in Buffalo. Kessel is yet to register a point through five games this season.

Mailloux will take a seat on Thursday in favour of Matthew Kessel, who draws back into the Blues lineup. Mailloux is yet to register a point through nine games this season.

Logan Mailloux will be a healthy scratch on Thursday against the Buffalo Sabres, allowing Kessel to re-enter the lineup. The 25-year-old Kessel has appeared in five games this season, averaging 10:30 time-on-ice and scoring zero points.

The Blues have had a terrible start to the season, and Logan Mailloux has been a byproduct of their poor team defense. The 22-year-old Mailloux has played sheltered minutes, averaging only 12:33 time-on-ice, but has still managed a woeful -12 plus/minus and zero point through nine games this season. Matthew Kessel will draw into the lineup as Mailloux's replacement.
