Can't slow Canes in Friday's loss Binnington stopped 37 of 40 shots in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Hurricanes, with Carolina's final two goals coming into an empty net.

Impact The loss eliminated St. Louis from the playoffs, a result made even tougher to swallow by the fact that the team twice took one-goal leads before Carolina took control in the third period. Binnington bounced back this season from a shaky 2022-23, posting a 2.88 GAA and .911 save percentage with a 28-21-4 record, but with 23-year-old Joel Hofer looking good as his backup, the Blues may attempt to move the veteran netminder's contract this offseason. Binnington has three years at a $6 million AAV left on his deal, with a partial no-trade clause.

With the Blues still clinging to the hope of securing a wild-card spot, the Blues will likely continue to rely heavily on the Ontario native. In his last six outings, Binnington has suffered just one regulation loss, posting a 4-1-1 record.

Wins ugly in Anaheim Binnington allowed five goals on 38 shots in Sunday's 6-5 shootout win over the Ducks.

Impact Binnington let three leads slip away in this game, but he made all three stops in the shootout to get the win anyway. He's won four of his last six outings, but he's allowed 20 goals in that span, so he's hardly inspiring much confidence. The 30-year-old is at 28-20-4 with a 2.88 GAA and a .911 save percentage through 55 appearances this season. The Blues' fate is out of their hands at this point, but Binnington figures to see most of the starts until they're officially out of the playoff race. The Blues return home to face the Blackhawks on Wednesday.

Loses key game Binnington stopped 25 of 29 shots in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Predators. The last two goals were empty-netters.

Impact A win for the Blues would have put them just four points behind the Predators, but the loss means the gap is eight points. It was a tough loss to take for Binnington and the Blues, and one that makes their pursuit of a playoff spot look grim with just six games left on the schedule. He's allowed three or more goals four times over his last six outings despite going 3-2-1 in that span. Binnington is at 27-20-4 with a 2.84 GAA and a .912 save percentage through 54 appearances.
