Looks good in first start of season Hofer made 27 saves in a 4-2 win over Calgary on Saturday.

Impact It was his first start of the season. Matt Coronato had Hofer's number, putting up both Calgary snipes. The first one redirected off a Flames defender; the second beat him high glove on a break. Hofer's fantasy value comes in spot starts, as the emerging netminder continues to grow his skills behind Jordan Binnington. He does have the ability to step into the starter's role in the event of a Binner injury, so he's a good stash.

Drawing start against Winnipeg Hofer was the first goalie off during Monday's morning skate, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports, indicating that he'll draw the road start against Winnipeg.

He's in the midst of a five-game winning streak in which he's posted a 1.79 GAA and .921 save percentage.

Earns win despite conceding four Hofer stopped 24 of 28 shots in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Penguins.

Impact Hofer returned to protecting the Blues' crease after not doing so in the previous two contests, but he managed to keep his winning run alive.

That translates to an outstanding 1.79 GAA and an excellent .921 save percentage across his five-game winning run.

Impact Hofer is riding a four-game winning streak during which he is sporting a 1.25 GAA and .942 save percentage. With the 24-year-old backstop playing this well, he could continue to see a decent share of the workload, perhaps even splitting the starts with Jordan Binnington heading into the final weeks of the 2024-25 campaign.
