Jordan Binnington to Guard Home Crease in Preseason Contest

St. Louis Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington will guard the home crease in Thursday's preseason contest against the Blackhawks. He looks to bounce back following a tough 2025-26 campaign where he posted a 13-20-7 record, 3.33 GAA, and .873 save percentage across 41 games. Binnington enters this season as the No. 2 option behind Joel Hofer and could become a trade candidate ahead of the 2027 deadline if the Blues struggle.
