St. Louis Blues News

Zach Dean - Clears Player Assistance Program Dean has been cleared by the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program and reassigned to AHL Springfield on Thursday.

Impact Dean had a goal and four points in 11 regular-season appearances with Springfield in 2024-25. He hasn't played yet this season. He was originally selected by Vegas with the No. 30 overall pick in the 2021 NHL Draft, and St. Louis acquired Dean from the Golden Knights on Feb. 26, 2023 in exchange for Ivan Barbashev.

Matthew Kessel - Sets up lone goal in loss Kessel notched an assist, two hits and three blocked shots in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact This was just his second appearance in the last 12 games. Kessel has fallen out of favor for a third-pairing role, with Tyler Tucker and Logan Mailloux most often getting looks in those spots instead. Kessel has three points, 11 shots on net, seven hits, 10 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 19 contests this season. Even if he claims a regular role in the lineup, he's unlikely to produce enough of anything to help fantasy managers.

Dalibor Dvorsky - Breaks up shutout bid Dvorsky scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Dvorsky ended a six-game goal drought with 5:28 left in the third period, denying Mackenzie Blackwood a shutout. The 20-year-old Dvorsky has done well to overcome some inconsistency, earning five points over his last eight games from a bottom-six role. He's now at six goals, three helpers, 41 shots on net, 48 hits and a minus-7 rating across 31 appearances.

Jordan Binnington - Torched for six goals Binnington stopped 37 of 43 shots in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact The Avalanche put four goals past Binnington within the first 4:39 of the game. Perhaps it was a show of force from Colorado to support their netminders, who both were left off Team Canada's Olympic roster, while Binnington was named to the team earlier in the day. Binnington has skidded to the end of 2025, going 0-3-1 with 18 goals allowed on 116 shots over his last four games. For the season, he's at a 7-10-6 record with a 3.56 GAA and an .869 save percentage over 24 outings, and he's been losing time to Joel Hofer between the pipes lately. Both Binnington and Hofer should get a start within the next two games as the Blues host the Golden Knights on Friday and the Canadiens on Saturday.

Jordan Binnington - Set to start Wednesday Binnington is expected to start on the road against Colorado, per Ryan Boulding of NHL.com.

Impact Binnington will look for a better result after stopping 13 of 17 shots en route to a 4-1 loss to Tampa Bay on Dec. 22. He has a 7-9-6 record, 3.44 GAA and .870 save percentage in 23 appearances in 2025-26. Colorado has been an incredibly difficult adversary this campaign, ranking first in goals per game with 4.00.

Colton Parayko - Manages helper Monday Parayko notched an assist, three hits and two blocked shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Sabres.

Impact After scoring a career-high 16 goals in 2024-25, Parayko has yet to find the back of the net nearly halfway through 2025-26. He's chipped in 11 assists over 40 contests, including four helpers across 14 outings in December. The defenseman has added 45 shots on net, 40 hits, 93 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a minus-6 rating this year. Barring a big second half, he'll finish below the 25-point mark for the first time since the shortened 2020-21 campaign.

Avalanche vs. Blues Prediction, Odds, Picks - Dec. 31

Jordan Kyrou - Grabs first apple since return Kyrou tallied an assist and recorded a block in Monday's 4-2 loss to Buffalo.

Impact Kyrou chipped in with a secondary helper on Brayden Schenn's goal early in the first period. With the apple, Kyrou now has nine assists, 17 points and 73 shots on net over 30 appearances this season. The assist was his first point across two games since his return from a lower-body injury. While the 27-year-old winger's stats have been underwhelming to begin this campaign, he's showcased the ability to get hot down the stretch of the regular season. In a one-month span from mid-March to mid-April a season ago, he posted 21 points in 17 games. If his current shooting percentage of 11.0 can level out soon, he has plenty of time to reach the 25-goal mark and 65-point threshold, which would be his fifth consecutive season reaching both milestones.

Jimmy Snuggerud - Adds first goal since return Snuggerud scored a goal, placed three shots on net and recorded four hits in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Sabres.

Impact Snuggerud put the Blues up by one midway through the first period for their only lead of Monday's contest. With the twine finder, he is up to six goals, 12 points, 50 shots on net and 31 hits through 28 games this season. Monday's goal was his first over his two appearances since returning from a wrist injury near the start of December. While he's rejoined the Blues' lineup in a third-line role, his playing time has fluctuated this season, which could lead to an increase in minutes in the near future. While the first half of his rookie campaign hasn't gone as many would've hoped, Snuggerud has shown flashes of skill that could lead to strong fantasy production down the line.

Brayden Schenn - Scores in second straight game Schenn potted a goal, put two shots on net, recorded two blocks and dished out three hits in Monday's 4-2 loss to Buffalo.

Impact Schenn helped the Blues level the score in Monday's contest just five minutes into the opening period. Overall, the 34-year-old center has eight goals, 16 points, 55 shots on net and 90 hits through 40 games this season. The 15-year NHL veteran has raised his quality of play as of late a goal in back-to-back games and three points over St. Louis' last four outings. His recent resurgence offensively hasn't interfered with his hit totals, as he is top four in both categories during that stretch. While his fantasy outlook might not be as appealing as he's currently on track for just over 30 points, he is a solid streaming value in the interim that covers multiple categories.

Joel Hofer - Solid effort in loss Hofer turned aside 30 of 33 shots on goal in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Sabres.

Impact Hofer tended a decent game through the first two periods, as he helped the Blues tie the Sabres through two periods before Buffalo's Zach Benson netted the go-ahead goal less than two minutes into the third. Following Monday's loss, Hofer now has an 8-8-2 record with a 2.87 GAA and a .901 save percentage through 22 outings this season. Despite having his three-game winning streak snapped in Monday's loss, the 25-year-old goalie has managed to turn around the outlook on his season over the past month. Since Nov. 29, he has thrived with a 6-3-0 record, a 1.98 GAA and a .931 save percentage across 11 appearances. As he continues to see the bulk of the workload in net for St. Louis during Jordan Binnington's struggles with consistency, Hofer is back on the fantasy radar and can be safely streamed in most league formats for the time being.
