Blues' Joel Hofer: Beaten twice, earns win
Hofer stopped 27 of 29 shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Panthers.
Hofer was beaten twice in the second period, as the Panthers attempted to come back from a two-goal deficit, but the 25-year-old netminder shut the door for good the rest of the way and got plenty of goal support. Hofer has won three of his last four starts, posting a 2.00 GAA and a .925 save percentage in that span.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Defending visiting crease Saturday
Hofer will guard the visiting goal in Florida on Saturday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
Hofer shut out the Jets on Wednesday, stopping 24 shots for his third shutout of the campaign. He is 6-7-2 with a 2.96 GAA and an .896 save percentage for the lowly Blues this season. The Panthers could be a tired team Saturday after scoring three times in the last 10 minutes of the third period en route to a 4-3 shootout win over Carolina on Friday.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Posts third shutout of season
Hofer stopped all 24 shots he faced in Wednesday's 1-0 win over the Jets.
This was Hofer's second win in his last five outings. The 25-year-old made his third straight start Wednesday, and he'll only cede the crease to Jordan Binnington on Thursday versus the Rangers because it's the second half of a back-to-back. Hofer is up to 6-7-2 with a 2.96 GAA and an .896 save percentage over 19 appearances. It's safe to call the Blues' crease contested at this time, and it may be trending toward Hofer taking over the No. 1 job if he gets the nod for games Saturday versus the Panthers and Monday against the Lightning.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Starting against Winnipeg
Hofer will start Wednesday's home game against the Jets, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
Hofer has seen an uptick in playing time recently, and he'll draw a third consecutive start Wednesday. Over his last seven appearances (five starts), he's gone 3-2-0 with a 2.13 GAA and a .924 save percentage. Winnipeg has 3.03 goals per game this year, which ranks 17th in the NHL.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Gives up four goals
Hofer stopped 21 of 25 shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Predators. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Hofer has appeared in each of the Blues' last four games, but the results haven't been very good, with only one win over that stretch (1-2-0), a 3.34 GAA and an .879 save percentage. Hofer hasn't shown enough to replace Jordan Binnington on a full-time basis. Both goaltenders have been struggling lately, so it's anyone's guess who'll get the nod when the Blues take on the Jets on Wednesday.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Tending twine Monday
Hofer will patrol the home crease against Nashville on Monday, Lou Korac of The Hockey News reports.
Hofer is coming off a 27-save performance in Friday's 3-2 win over Chicago. He has a 5-6-2 record with two shutouts, a 3.10 GAA and an .893 save percentage through 17 appearances this season. Nashville ranks 26th in the league with 2.74 goals per game this campaign.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Earns win Friday
Hofer stopped 27 of 29 shots in Friday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Hofer is pushing his way into a larger share of the crease, as he's now won three of his last four starts. In that span, which covers six appearances, he's yielded just nine goals on 146 shots, good for a .938 save percentage. Overall, Hofer has a 5-6-2 record with a 3.10 GAA and an .893 save percentage through 17 appearances. He'll likely continue to share the crease with Jordan Binnington, but Hofer could be in line for more usage if he continues to put together strong outings.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Tending twine versus Blackhawks
Hofer will guard the home goal versus the Blackhawks on Friday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
Hofer will get the starting nod after making a relief appearance versus the Predators on Thursday. The 25-year-old has been gaining momentum in the crease amid Jordan Binnington's recent struggles. A strong showing from Hofer on Friday could help him carve out more playing time.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Makes relief appearance
Hofer stopped six of seven shots in relief of Jordan Binnington in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Predators.
Hofer played the third period and gave up a power-play goal to Michael Bunting. Hofer has allowed seven goals on 117 shots over his last five outings, two of which have come in relief. If he keeps this up, the 25-year-old could end up taking over the starting role for the Blues, though the team's overall struggles will still keep Hofer from being much of an option in fantasy.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Tagged with loss Tuesday
Hofer stopped 26 of 30 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Bruins. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Hofer lost a start for the first time since Nov. 24, when he allowed three goals in a 3-2 defeat against the Rangers. The 25-year-old netminder had allowed just two goals on 80 shots faced across his previous three appearances (two starts). On the season, Hofer has a 3.18 GAA, an .891 save percentage and a 4-6-2 record in 15 outings.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Impressive against Ottawa
Hofer made 41 saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Senators.
Hofer had one of his best performances of the season Saturday, as he was under heavy pressure all game long but still denied the Senators time and time again to earn the win. The only time Hofer was beaten came in the third period, when Fabian Zetterlund's wrister went past him during a power play. Hofer has made 78 saves and allowed two goals over his last three appearances.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Starting in Ottawa
Hofer will defend the road net against the Senators on Saturday, Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Good effort in relief outing
Hofer stopped 19 of 20 shots in relief of Jordan Binnington in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Ducks.
Hofer entered the game midway through the first period after Binnington was pulled following the Ducks' second goal. Hofer did well to keep things close, but the Blues' offense couldn't give him any support. Hofer was able to avoid the loss, as Binnington was responsible for the decisive goal. For the season, Hofer is 3-5-2 with a 3.29 GAA and an .882 save percentage over 13 appearances. Inconsistency from both goalies has prevented either from breaking away with the starting job, though Binnington has had an edge in starts. The Blues begin a three-game road trip in Boston on Thursday, and a back-to-back over the weekend in Ottawa on Saturday and Montreal on Sunday should allow both goalies to get playing time soon.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Earns second shutout of season
Hofer posted an 18-save shutout in Saturday's 1-0 win over the Mammoth.
Hofer made a Dylan Holloway tally late in the second period stand as the game-winner. The shutout performance ended a four-game skid for Hofer, who had allowed 14 goals during that 0-2-2 stretch. The 25-year-old improved to 3-5-2 with two shutouts, a 3.45 GAA and an .877 save percentage over 12 appearances this season. Jordan Binnington won't completely surrender the starting job, but the Blues' crease has been trending closer to a 50-50 split in November. The Blues' next game is at home versus the Ducks on Monday.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Set to face Utah
Hofer is set to start at home against Utah on Saturday, per Lou Korac of NHL.com.
Hofer hasn't earned a win since Nov. 6, going 0-2-2 with a 3.46 GAA and an .876 save percentage in four appearances since his last victory. The 25-year-old is 2-5-2 with a 3.82 GAA and an .869 save percentage in 11 outings overall in 2025-26. Utah is in a three-way tie for 13th in goals per game with 3.08.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Struggles continue Monday
Hofer stopped 18 of 21 shots in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Rangers.
Despite a clean first period, Hofer faltered down the stretch and allowed three consecutive goals across an 18-minute span in the second and third periods. With the loss, the 25-year-old netminder has a 2-5-2 record with a 3.82 GAA and an .869 save percentage through 11 appearances this season. Hofer has lost each of his last four starts and has just one win since his opening-night victory. He can't be trusted in fantasy formats until he finds consistency in the win column and is best left on waivers.

Blues' Joel Hofer: Between pipes against Rangers
Hofer will tend the twine on the road versus the Rangers on Monday.
Hofer has been splitting the workload with Jordan Binnington of late, featuring in two of the Blues' last five outings. In those appearances, the 25-year-old Hofer hasn't exactly impressed, posting a 0-1-1 record with seven goals allowed on 62 shots. Still, it seems the starting job is up for grabs in St. Louis, and a win Monday could improve Hofer's chances of getting more opportunities in the crease.
