Binnington will not require surgery on his injured knee, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports Tuesday. Binnington appeared to have rediscovered his game in the playoffs, going 4-1 with a 1.75 GAA in five outings before suffering a knee injury in Game 3 against Colorado on May 21. The 28-year-old netminder found himself watching from the bench for much of the regular season in favor of Ville Husso but will no doubt be hoping his playoff performance can propel him into resecuring the starting job heading into the 2022-23 campaign.

Binnington (knee) will not play against Colorado in Round 2 but could be available for Round 3, if the Blues advance, Tarik El-Bashir of The Athletic reports. The netminder was injured during the first period of Game 3 on Saturday. Thankfully, Binnington does not need surgery, but he's nonetheless unavailable as the Blues look to bounce back from a 2-1 series deficit. Ville Husso will assume starting duties with the recently recalled Charlie Lindgren backing up.

Binnington is dealing with a suspected knee sprain, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports. Rutherford adds if the knee sprain is confirmed, Binnington would be at risk of missing multiple weeks. This will likely mean the Blues have to turn to Ville Husso as the starter for the remainder of the team's playoff run, while Charlie Lindgren or Joel Hofer will be called up from AHL Springfield.

Binnington is being evaluated for a lower-body injury, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports. Binnington was hurt in the first period of Saturday's Game 3. There was some concern of an upper-body injury due to head contact on the play, but that worry has been quelled with this latest update. Binnington will likely be considered day-to-day going forward, and Ville Husso would be expected to start Monday's Game 4 if the former isn't ready to play.

Binnington (undisclosed) suffered an injury in Saturday's Game 3 versus the Avalanche, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports. Binnington was run into by Avalanche center Nazem Kadri and Blues defenseman Calle Rosen as the two players competed for a rebound in front of the net. There was contact with Binnington's head on the play, which is never a good sign. Ville Husso replaced him in goal.

Husso plays the puck almost as well as Binnington, just not as much
