"The numbers weren't always there last season, but there is no denying the quality of this tandem (I ranked them No. 9 in my personal Super 16), which was middle-third statistically in 2024-25. Jordan Binnington is a big-game goalie (see the 4 Nations Face-Off performance with Canada or the 2019 run to the Stanley Cup) who is hard to beat when he is on. When he's not, Joel Hofer is there to pick up the slack. The 25-year-old played 31 games last season, his second straight with at least 30, and went a career-best 16-8-3 with a .904 save percentage. That's not a bad security blanket at all for the Blues." -- Shawn P. Roarke, senior director of editorial
Not saying they are the best by any stretch but putting them behind Jets, Stars, Rangers, Caps, Devils, Leafs, Lightning, Avalanche, Panthers and Canucks? Come on man! Blues tandem is arguably top 5 to me.
Right now the Blues are dead last....
