Hofer Tending Net for Blues, Challenging for Top Job

St. Louis Blues netminder Joel Hofer will guard the home net against Nashville on Saturday, marking his fifth start in the team's last seven games. Hofer holds a 7-7-2 record this season, including three shutouts, a 2.91 GAA, and an .898 save percentage, as he challenges Jordan Binnington for the top goaltending position. He faces a streaking Predators team, currently 16-16-4 and winners of three straight, sitting just three points out of a Western Conference wild card spot.
