Mathieu Joseph - NHL News & Rumors

Pockets helper in shootout loss Joseph notched an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Kings.

Impact This was Joseph's second game back in the lineup following an elbow injury. The 28-year-old forward has retaken a spot on the third line for now, though his playing time is far from secure, as he's often been a healthy scratch. He's up to 11 points, 28 shots on net, 78 hits, 27 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 37 appearances this season, offering minimal fantasy upside while on a low-scoring team.

Returning against Stars Joseph (elbow) will be in the lineup versus Dallas on Friday, Andy Strickland of FanDuel Sports Network reports.

Impact Joseph is back following a seven-game absence due to his elbow injury, replacing Nathan Walker in a fourth-line role. The 28-year-old Joseph is currently stuck in a 21-game goal drought during which he generated just 10 shots, though he did chip in four helpers. Unless Joseph starts shooting the puck, he's going to be hard-pressed to break out of his slump.

Shifts to IR Joseph (elbow) was moved to injured reserve on Tuesday, per Lou Korac of NHL.com.

Impact With Nick Bjugstad (upper body) activated ahead of his return to the lineup, Joseph was placed on IR in the corresponding move. Prior to landing on injured reserve, the 28-year-old winger missed each of the team's last three games due to the elbow infection. Joseph has two goals, 10 points, 28 shots on net, 74 hits and 25 blocks across 35 games this season. Assuming the Blues used a retroactive designation for Joseph, he would technically be eligible to return Friday against the Lightning.

Dealing with elbow infection The Blues announced Monday that Joseph is considered day-to-day due to an elbow infection, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

Impact Joseph has been out of the lineup for each of the last three games, and he'll be unavailable for Tuesday's matchup against Carolina due to his elbow issue. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return to action, but his next opportunity to do so will be Friday against the Lightning.

Records two helpers in win Joseph dished out two assists in Friday's 4-3 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Joseph notched his second multi-point game of the season Friday with a helper on both of the goals scored by his linemates, Alexei Toropchenko and Oskar Sundqvist, respectively. With the pair of apples, Joseph is up to eight assists, 10 points, 28 shots on goal, 74 hits and 23 blocks through 34 games this season. While he has two 30-plus point seasons over the last four years, his ceiling in fantasy is limited in a fourth-line role while occasionally being scratched from the lineup.

Snags helper Friday Joseph posted an assist and two PIM in Friday's 4-3 win over the Senators.

Impact Joseph picked up his first point in four appearances since he missed a game due to a lower-body injury. The 28-year-old forward is still very much in a part-time role as the Blues tried to find the right mix of players to fill bottom-six roles. Joseph has seven points, 20 shots on net, 36 hits and a minus-1 rating over 19 appearances, but his lack of a secured spot in the lineup makes him too risky for most fantasy formats.

Impact Joseph is poised to take on a third-line role alongside Pius Suter and Brayden Schenn. In his last six contests, Joseph has only written himself on the scoresheet once, but racked up one goal and two helpers in that game. Given his inconsistencies, it wouldn't be a surprise to see Joseph serve as a healthy scratch periodically this season.

Now, the 28-year-old winger finds himself on the shelf due to his lower-body problem. In his stead, Oskar Sundqvist will step into a fourth-line role while veteran Nick Bjugstad will also return to the lineup.

Finds twine in Monday's loss Joseph scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Penguins.

Impact Joseph's first goal of the season brought the Blues within a goal in the third period, but they couldn't make a comeback of it. The 28-year-old has been firmly in a middle-six role this season, earning three points, 13 shots on net, 19 hits and a minus-1 rating over nine appearances. He's averaging 12:48 of ice time, which is nearly a minute better than his 11:54 mark in the 2024-25 regular season but still well below previous years. That limited role will inhibit his ability to put up consistent offense.

Impact Joseph has started 2025-26 in a third-line role. He has a helper, five shots, seven hits, four blocked shots and a plus-1 rating while averaging 12:26 of ice time.

He had just 14 points in 60 regular-season outings last year, his lowest output since 2019-20.

Nets goal in loss Joseph scored a goal on three shots, added three hits and blocked five shots in Sunday's 4-3 double-overtime loss to the Jets in Game 7.

Impact Joseph was scratched from Game 2 to Game 5 before checking in for Friday's Game 6. He didn't do much in that contest but stayed in the lineup and made a contribution with his first-period tally Sunday to give the Blues an early 2-0 lead. The 28-year-old was in and out of the lineup all season, racking up a meager 14 points over 60 regular-season contests. He's under contract for 2025-26, but his $2.95 million cap hit didn't match his usage this year, so it's possible he'll be a trade candidate.
