Jordan Binnington Gets Road Start Against Sharks Friday

Jordan Binnington will draw the start for the St. Louis Blues against the San Jose Sharks on Friday. The Blues face a difficult situation with only five defensemen dressed for the contest following the trade of Justin Faulk and Colton Parayko's back injury. Binnington enters the game looking to snap an eight-game losing streak, during which he has recorded an .844 save percentage. He will need a strong performance to keep the shorthanded Blues competitive.
