McGing made his season debut on December 9th and played five straight games for the Blues, but we held without a point and registered a -5 plus/minus while averaging under nine minutes on the ice. He has been reassigned to the Springfield Thunderbirds of the AHL, where he has 14 points (4G / 11A) in 21 games.

Binnington will start for the fifth consecutive game and look for his third-straight win on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. In the two games since Drew Bannister took over coaching duties for the Blues, Binnington has won both games, saving 52 of 57 shots (.912 SV%) in the process. The Blues are +151 road favourites against the Lightning despite defeating them 5-0 in their only other meeting, a 30-save shutout for Binnington, his only one of the season.

Joseph left Friday's game with a lower-body injury and did not return. With the Senators recalling two forwards from Belleville (AHL) on Saturday, it signals that Joseph will not play Sunday in Vegas.

Binnington starts his fourth-straight game Saturday as he takes on Dallas after a 32 save (.941 SV%) win over Ottawa in his previous start. The 30-year-old Stanley Cup winner has brought his game back after two down seasons, with his 9-9-1 record, 3.05 GAA and .909 SV%. He will host the Dallas Stars, who have won their last two games and are seventh in the NHL in goals per game (3.5).

Binnington had a forgettable performance on Tuesday, allowing five goals on 31 shots (.839 SV%) but will look to redeem himself as the Blues' starting goalie on Thursday. Binnington's season has consisted of hot and cold stretches and is currently amid a cold streak, losing three straight contests (0-3-0), allowing 13 goals on 13 total shots (.874 SV%). The Blues are slight +107 home underdogs against an Ottawa Senators team that has won three of their last five outings, outscoring their opposition 17-10.

Binnington allowed three goals on 24 shots (.875 SV%) in a 3-1 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday and will return to the crease for the Blues on Tuesday. Binnington has now put together consecutive poor performances, allowing eight goals on his last 72 shots (.889 SV%) and seen his season GAA increase to 3.00 while still sporting a respectable .911 SV%. The Blues are -134 home favourites against a Detroit Red Wings team that lost 6-3 to the Dallas Stars last night and is without several key offensive players including Dylan Larkin (upper-body), J.T. Compher (soreness), and David Perron (suspension).

Tucker will play for only the third time since November 7th and is expected to skate on the Blues third defensive pair with Scott Perunovich. In 10 games this season, the 23-year-old Tucker has two points (1G / 1A), 10 penalty minutes, 11 blocks, and 17 hits.

Hofer will start for the first time since allowing four goals on 15 shots (.733 SV%) in an 8-3 loss to the Nashville Predators on November 24th but will have a favourable matchup against a Columbus Blue Jackets team that has lost three straight, including a 7-3 loss to the New York Islanders last night. Hofer has been inconsistent this season but mostly reliable when called upon, posting a 3.04 GAA and .901 SV% in nine games (5-4-0). The Blues are -141 road favourites on Friday night.

With trade talks speculating as a result of Broberg being unable to make an impact with the Oilers, he has been loaned to the Bakersfield Condors of the AHL. Broberg, the eighth overall pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft, is averaging only 10:32 time-on-ice and has failed to record a point through 10 games this season. Benjamin Gleason has been recalled from Bakersfield to replace him in the Oilers lineup.

Binnington will take the Blues' crease of the fifth time in six games as he draw Vegas Monday after beating them with a 33 save performance (.971 SV%) in his previous start. The 30-year-old goaltender has enjoyed a pleasant bounce back season thus far after two down years, with his 8-6-1 record, 2.86 GAA and .914 SV%. He takes on the Vegas Golden Knights for a second-straight game, who has lost four of their last six games and are 10th in the NHL in shots per game (32.0).
