Binnington stopped 21 of 25 shots in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Jets in Game 1. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Game 1 was tied at 3-3 late in the third period, but Kyle Connor's goal with 1:36 left was the difference. Binnington has had success under pressure before, winning eight of his last 10 regular-season starts to help the Blues get into the playoffs, and that run started just a month after the 4 Nations Face-Off, where he led Team Canada to a first-place finish. The 31-year-old will have his hands full with the Jets, especially after Winnipeg's top line was in form in Game 1. Expect Binnington to see the vast majority of starts initially -- Joel Hofer played well in 2024-25, but he's untested in the playoffs.

Blues' Jordan Binnington: Dazzles in pivotal win
Rotowire
Binnington stopped 22 of 23 shots in Tuesday's 6-1 win over Utah.
The Blues needed to win Tuesday to clinch a playoff spot, and while the offense did its part by scoring four times in the first period, Binnington delivered a solid showing as well by conceding just once. That was a step in the right direction after he had given up three or more goals in his previous three outings. The star goaltender ends the regular season with a 28-22-5 record across 56 starts, posting a 2.69 GAA (his best mark since the 2020-21 campaign) and a .900 save percentage. He's recorded a save percentage of at least .900 in six of his seven full seasons in the league.

Blues' Jordan Binnington: Starting in pivotal matchup
Rotowire
Binnington will patrol the home crease Tuesday versus Utah, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
There a number of clinching scenarios in play Tuesday, but Binnington can help the Blues lock up a playoff spot with a regulation win over Utah. The 31-year-old goaltender has faltered recently after winning seven consecutive games, surrendering a total of seven goals on just 40 shots across back-to-back losses to Edmonton and Seattle. This will be Binnington's third start against Utah this season -- he went 1-1-0 with a 2.53 GAA and a .914 save percentage in those two appearances.

Blues' Jordan Binnington: Loses in shootout
Rotowire
Binnington stopped 14 of 17 shots in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Kraken.
In addition to a poor performance in regulation, Binnington allowed three goals on seven shootout attempts to take the loss. This result was unpleasant for the Blues -- they're now a point back of the Wild for the first wild-card spot, and the Flames have two games in hand to try to erase a four-point deficit for the last playoff spot in the Western Conference. Binnington has faltered at a bad time, allowing 11 goals while going 1-1-1 over his last three games. For the season, he's 27-22-5 with a 2.72 GAA and a .900 save percentage through 55 outings. Despite his recent struggles, he's the No. 1 goalie for a reason, so don't be surprised to see him start Tuesday versus Utah if the Blues still need to punch their postseason ticket.

Rotowire
Binnington is expected to start on the road against Seattle on Saturday, according to Lou Korac of The Hockey News.
Binnington excelled from Feb. 23-April 1, recording an 11-2-0 record, 2.00 GAA and .919 save percentage across 13 appearances. However, the 31-year-old's hot stretch appears to be over after allowing four goals in each of his past two starts. Seattle ranks 17th in goals per game with 2.96.

Blues' Jordan Binnington: Falls to Oilers
Rotowire
Binnington stopped 19 of 23 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Oilers.
Binnington had to deal with Connor McDavid, who dished three assists in his return from a lower-body injury. The 31-year-old Binnington saw his personal seven-game winning streak snapped just one game after Joel Hofer's loss in Winnipeg ended the Blues' 12-game surge. Binnington is now 27-22-4 with a 2.72 GAA and a .900 save percentage over 54 appearances. The Blues have just two games left in the regular season -- Saturday at Seattle and Tuesday at home versus Utah -- so unless their playoff fate is on the line longer than expected, Binnington and Hofer will likely split the last two contests.

Blues' Jordan Binnington: Guarding crease Wednesday
Rotowire
Binnington will get the starting nod Wednesday on the road against the Oilers, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
It'll be Binnington to try to get the Blues back in the win column following Monday's loss to the Jets that snapped St Louis' 12-game win streak. The 31-year-old has won seven straight starts, allowing just 13 total goals (1.86 per game) over that stretch. He will look to continue that against a shorthanded Oilers lineup without many key pieces, including superstars Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl.

Blues' Jordan Binnington: Bends, doesn't break in win
Rotowire
Binnington stopped 35 of 39 shots in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Avalanche.
This game had no business being that close, as the Blues led 4-0 midway through the second period. They eased up a little bit, and the Avalanche made a push, but Binnington did just enough to get his seventh win in a row. He helped the Blues set a franchise record with their 12th straight win overall, though he's seemingly benefited from yielding some playing time to Joel Hofer. Binnington is up to 27-21-4 with a 2.69 GAA and a .902 save percentage over 53 appearances this season. The Blues' upcoming three-game road trip starts with a tough matchup Monday in Winnipeg.

Blues' Jordan Binnington: Shines in net Sunday
Rotowire
Binnington saved 31 of 32 shots on goal in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Predators.
Outside of a tally in the second period from Nashville's Filip Forsberg, Binnington tended an elite game against a high volume of shots. Overall, the 31-year-old netminder has a 23-21-4 record with a 2.77 GAA and an .898 save percentage in 49 appearances this season. Despite having a lower save percentage than the majority of his previous seasons, Binnington has been sensational since the 4 Nations Face-Off with an 8-2-0 record, a .906 save percentage and just 22 goals allowed in his 10 appearances during that stretch. He has been a large part of why St. Louis is on a six-game winning streak and is currently occupying a wild-card spot in the Western Conference. While he has alternated appearances in net with Joel Hofer over the past few weeks, Binnington is a must-start in all fantasy formats when he is slated to guard the crease.
