He then rang up four wins in a row before this recent stretch. Hofer is a |

Instead, look for Jordan Binnington to see a heavy workload until Hofer can find his game. |
Hofer snapped a three-game losing streak with a solid showing against the Rangers, but fantasy managers shouldn't get too excited about this performance. He should return to his backup role behind Jordan Binnington for the upcoming games, meaning Hofer will only have upside as a streaming, matchup-based option in games where Binnington gets some rest.

If he can avoid another quick exit Thursday, perhaps the Winnipeg native can earn more opportunities in the rest |
After opening the campaign with three consecutive victories, Hofer has lost his last two outings while giving up a combined eight goals over that span. The 24-year-old netminder wasn't given much help in Thursday's contest -- Utah outshot St. Louis by more than a two-to-one margin. Through five appearances in 2024-25, Hofer is sporting a 3-2-0 record, .903 save percentage and 3.33 GAA. |

Hofer will play his second game in a row after picking up a 34-save shutout over the Islanders on Thursday. Hofer played well last season, going 15-12-1 with a 2.65 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 30 regular-season games. His play could give him a shot at sharing the No. 1 job with Jordan Binnington this season. |
Hofer had a rough showing in his season debut against the Sharks on Oct. 10, allowing four goals in 29 shots, but he's been excellent of late with back-to-back wins over the Islanders and Hurricanes while stopping a combined 71 of 74 shots in that span. It's unclear if Hofer will remain in St. Louis' crease for Tuesday's home matchup against the Jets, but he's trending in the right direction. Over |

He'll have the chance to start at home Thursday against the Islanders, who have scored 10 goals over their first three games this season while posting a 1-1-1 record. |
Hofer has won both of his starts this season, and he had to be perfect to do it this time. The 24-year-old helped his own cause, providing the secondary assist on Jake Neighbours' game-winning tally at 2:04 of overtime. Hofer has allowed four goals on 63 shots so far.

Hofer was on the bench Opening Night as Jordan Binnington picked up the start in Seattle. Hofer appeared in 30 regular-season games in 2023-24, registering 15 wins, a 2.65 GAA and a .913 save percentage.

Hofer gave up all four goals over the first two periods. He dialed in for the third, allowing the Blues to build a comeback that Brayden Schenn completed 45 seconds into overtime.

In two periods of work, Hofer stopped 26 of 28 shots in Wednesday's 3-0 exhibition loss to Columbus. He supplied a 15-12-1 record with a 2.65 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 30 outings during the 2023-24 regular season. Hofer will serve as Jordan Binnington's backup during the upcoming campaign. |
Hofer played well, but the same couldn't be said for many of his teammates. The goals against him came on a Columbus power play and a set play off a faceoff. Hofer is pretty well locked in as the Blues' No. 2 option to begin 2024-25, as he'll reprise his role from last year as backup to Jordan Binnington. |
