Joel Hofer to Defend Home Crease Against Reigning Champion Hurricanes

Joel Hofer will defend the home crease for the St. Louis Blues in Saturday's matchup against the Carolina Hurricanes. Hofer is currently on a strong run, earning decisive wins in three of his last four outings. Overall, the 26-year-old netminder boasts a 4-2-1 record, a 2.17 GAA, and a .921 save percentage across seven appearances this season. He faces a tough test against Carolina, who rank third in the NHL with 3.92 goals per game, but remains a solid fantasy option.
