Joel Hofer Getting The Nod Wednesday
8 months agoSt. Louis Blues goaltender Joel Hofer will be between the pipes for Wednesday's contest against the Chicago Blackhawks. While Jordan Binnington has continued to get the bulk of the starts for the Blues, Hofer has been the superior netminder. He has yielded just 11 goals over his last five starts while posting a .926 save percentage in that time. For the season, the 23-year-old has posted a 2.74 goals-against average alongside a .913 save percentage across 28 games (25 starts), going 13-12-1 in that time. The Blues' playoff hopes are on life support as they sit five points back of the Vegas Golden Knights for the final Wild Card spot in the Western Conference but Vegas sports a game in hand.
