Update
Hofer allowed one goal on 23 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Jets.Analysis
Hofer picked up his second win in a row to bounce back from a three-game losing streak. The 24-year-old has run a little streaky in the backup role for the Blues this year -- he won his first three starts of the season. He's now 5-3-0 with a 2.93 GAA and a .904 save percentage over eight appearances. Hofer has played once every three or four games for the most part, so it's unclear when he might s| Date | News | Advice |
|---|---|---|
| Dec. 3, 2024 | Hofer will be between the pipes in Tuesday's road game against the Jets, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports. - Hofer will make his first start in eight days -- the 24-year-old was solid in his last appearance, stopping 27 of 29 shots in a 5-2 win over the Rangers. It was the Manitoba's native first victory since Oct. 19, as he hasn't received much work as Jordan Binnington's understudy. Hofer will have a tough matchup against a Winnipeg team that ranks third in the NHL with 3.76 goals per game through 25 contests. | None |
| Nov. 26, 2024 | Hofer stopped 27 of 29 shots in Monday's 5-2 win over the Rangers. - 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. Hofer is 4-3-0 with a 3.23 GAA and an .899 save percentage in seven appearances this season. | None |
| Nov. 25, 2024 | Hofer was the first goalie off the ice Monday, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports, indicating he'll guard the cage on the road against the Rangers. - Hofer has played in just three of the Blues' last 16 contests, losing all three outings while posting a 4.82 GAA. Unfortunately for the team, there isn't a strong candidate within its system to call up from the minors to challenge Hofer for the No. 2 job. Instead, look for Jordan Binnington to see a heavy workload until Hofer can find his game. | None |
| Nov. 17, 2024 | Hofer will guard the road goal against Carolina on Sunday, Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. - Hofer will get the second half of the Blues' back-to-back after Jordan Binnington played in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over Boston. The 24-year-old Hofer has a 3-2-0 record with a 3.33 GAA and a .903 save percentage through five appearances this season. Carolina ranks fourth in the league with 4.00 goals per game and earned a 4-0 win over Ottawa on Saturday. | None |
| Nov. 8, 2024 | Hofer allowed three goals on 30 shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to Utah. - 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. | None |
| Nov. 7, 2024 | Hofer exited the ice first Thursday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports, indicating he'll get the starting nod at home versus Utah. - Hofer was pulled in his previous appearance after giving up five goals on 21 shots against the Senators. With no back-to-backs on the recent schedule, the Blues have only deployed Hofer in one of their last seven outings, despite having started the season on a three-game winning streak. If he can avoid another quick exit Thursday, perhaps the Winnipeg native can earn more opportunities in the rest of November. | None |
| Oct. 30, 2024 | Hofer gave up five goals on 21 shots before being replaced by Jordan Binnington midway through the second period in Tuesday's 8-1 loss to the Senators. - Neither goalie got much help from their defense in the rout, and the last two goals against Hofer came on Ottawa power play. It's the first loss of the season for the 24-year-old netminder, who's posted a 3-1-0 record with a 3.40 GAA and .903 save percentage through four appearances as the Blues' No. 2 goalie. | None |
| Oct. 29, 2024 | Hofer will make his fourth start of the season in Tuesday's road matchup versus the Senators, according to Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. - Hofer will look to extend his season-opening win streak to four against an Ottawa club that ranks sixth in the league offensively with 3.75 goals per game. The 24-year-old has turned aside a combined 96 of 103 shots through three appearances en route to a 3-0-0 record, .932 save percentage and 2.32 GAA. | None |
| Oct. 20, 2024 | Hofer stopped 37 of 40 shots in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Hurricanes. - 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 three games, Hofer has gone 3-0-0 with a 2.32 GAA and a .932 save percentage. | None |
| Oct. 19, 2024 | Hofer will protect the home crease versus Carolina on Saturday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports. - 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. | None |

Hofer appeared in 30 regular-season games in 2023-24, registering 15 wins, a 2.65 GAA and a .913 save percentage. The netminder will face the Sharks, who scored only 181 goals in 82 contests last season -- 31st overall in the NHL. | None |
| Oct. 5, 2024 | Hofer stopped all five shots he faced in the third period of Saturday's 6-2 preseason loss to the Blackhawks. - Vadim Zherenko started and allowed six goals over the first two periods. Hofer was able to do his job without much effort in the third. After allowing just four goals on 80 shots over four preseason appearances, Hofer looks ready for the regular season. The 24-year-old will back up Jordan Binnington to begin 2024-25, but Hofer could earn a larger role if Binnington struggles at any point in the campaign. | None |

| Sept. 22, 2024 | Hofer will start in net for Sunday's preseason game against Utah. - Hofer will look to earn more work in 2024-25, but he'll begin the season as Jordan Binnington's backup.

Through 30 games, Hofer has gone 15-12-1 with a 2.65 GAA and .914 save percentage. With St. Louis eliminated from playoff contention, the 23-year-old netminder will likely get a chance to start Wednesday's season finale in Dallas. While he didn't take the lion's share of starts, Hofer showed a lot of promise and could be an interesting depth option for fantasy managers next season. | None |

He's 6-5-0 with a 2.92 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 12 appearances in 2023-24. The Stars rank sixth offensively this year with 3.50 goals per game, so this will be a difficult matchup for Hofer. | None |
| Dec. 22, 2023 | Hofer set aside 37 shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Panthers. - The Blues' backup goalie was on point, as he picked up a career high in saves en route to his sixth win in 12 games.

Hofer is 8-3-0 with a 3.02 GAA and a .905 save percentage this season. The Coyotes are second-last in shots on goal per game, averaging only 27.4 shots, but they have made the most of it, as they are 16th overall in finding the back of the net, averaging 3.18 goals per contest. | None |

| Nov. 19, 2023 | Hofer will get the starting nod in Anaheim on Sunday, Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. - Hofer is looking to bounce back after getting tagged with four goals on 21 shots before getting yanked during Thursday's loss to the Sharks.

| Nov. 16, 2023 | Hofer will guard the road crease against San Jose on Thursday, per Max Miller of The Hockey News. - Hofer has a 3-1-0 record, 2.50 GAA and .918 save percentage in four contests this season. Jordan Binnington has been a great No. 1 option for the Blues this campaign, so Hofer's opportunities have been rare despite his strong play when given the opportunity. At least the backup goaltender has been given a choice assignment in the Sharks, which are averaging just 1.31 goals per game this year. | None |
| Nov. 10, 2023 | Hofer stopped 19 of 20 shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Coyotes. - After allowing a power-play goal in the first period, Hofer settled in and blanked the Coyotes over his final two frames en route to a one-goal victory.

| Nov. 4, 2023 | Hofer will patrol the home crease Saturday against Montreal, per Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. - Hofer has stopped 63 of 69 shots in two outings this season en route to a 1-1-0 record.

He has appeared in one game this campaign, stopping 36 of 42 shots in last Thursday's 6-2 loss to Arizona.

| Oct. 5, 2023 | Hofer is expected to begin the season as Jordan Binnington's backup goaltender, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports. - This news was expected after Hofer signed a one-way contract extension in January. The 23-year-old showed some upside through six appearances during the 2022-23 campaign, as he posted a 3-1-1 record with a .905 save percentage, a 3.22 GAA and a shutout. Making the leap to the NHL level full time won't be easy, and he'll need to continue to prove himself to hold off Malcolm Subban, who the Blues signed to a one-year deal this summer. There's a wide range of outcomes for Hofer this year, including becoming the 1B behind Binnington, so he's worthy of a late-round flier in fantasy drafts. | None |
| April 12, 2023 | Per Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Hofer was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, putting him on track to guard the home goal versus the Stars on Wednesday. - Hofer has been pretty solid during his limited time in the NHL this season, going 3-0-1 while posting a respectable 2.79 GAA and .915 save percentage through five games.

| April 10, 2023 | Hofer was recalled from AHL Springfield on Monday. - Hofer has stopped 130 of 142 shots in five starts with the Blues this season. He could start in one of the team's final two games of the regular season versus Dallas. | None |
| March 27, 2023 | Hofer allowed five goals on 17 shots in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Kings. - Hofer struggled Sunday, allowing five goals in the first period before he was replaced by Jordan Binnington. However, the 22-year-old Hofer maintained his perfect record in regulation as the Blues would rally to score six before ultimately falling 7-6. Sunday's rough outing was the lone blemish in an otherwise impressive start to Hofer's NHL career. He's 3-0-1 with a .915 save percentage in five appearances this season. | None |
| March 23, 2023 | Hofer made 25 saves in a 4-3 win over the Red Wings on Thursday. - Hofer is 3-0-1 with one shutout and seven goals allowed in four starts this season. He is auditioning for a role with the big club for next season and so far, so good. Hofer may continue to see more ice time than the other Blues' goalies over the next few weeks, and he has the talent to deliver decent starts for a deep fantasy squads. | None |
| March 21, 2023 | Hofer stopped 28 of 30 shots in the Blues' 3-2 shootout loss to the Red Wings on Tuesday. - Hofer started off the contest rocky, allowing two goals in the first period, but shut the door on the Red Wings the rest of the way. He was unable to pick up the win, however, getting beat by Lucas Raymond in the shootout. This outing snapped a two-game winning streak for the Canadian goaltender. Hofer will likely be in a time-share with Jordan Binnington for the rest of the season. | None |
| March 20, 2023 | Hofer turned aside all 33 shots he faced in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Jets. - He would have gotten a shutout in his fourth career NHL appearance, but Hofer left the ice briefly in the second period to get his skate checked out and Thomas Greiss made one save in his absence. It was still a stellar performance for the 22-year-old, who has won two straight starts since being called up Thursday while stopping 65 of 67 shots. Jordan Binnington's suspension is now up, but the fact that the rebuilding Blues gave both starts to Hofer rather than Greiss in his absence suggests the youngster may not immediately be headed back to AHL Springfield. With Greiss headed for free agency in the offseason, Hofer could get a longer look over the final weeks of the regular season. | None |
| March 17, 2023 | Hofer will be in the visiting crease versus Washington on Friday, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports. - Hofer was recalled Thursday when the NHL suspended Jordan Binnington two games for his match penalty against the Wild the previous night. Hofer was 22-14-4 with a 2.50 GAA and .920 save percentage with AHL Springfield before his recall. He will face the Capitals, who are 18th in NHL scoring, averaging 3.10 goals per contest. | None |
| March 16, 2023 | Hofer was recalled from AHL Springfield on Thursday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. - Hofer was recalled when Jordan Binnington received a two-game suspension for his match penalty versus the Wild on Wednesday. Hofer was 22-14-4 with a 2.50 GAA and .920 save percentage in AHL action before his recall. He played two games with the Blues last season, going 1-1-0, stopping 44 of 50 shots in a win versus the Sharks and a loss to the Hurricanes. He likely will back up Thomas Greiss for both games. | None |
| Jan. 2, 2023 | Hofer signed a two-year, $1.55 million extension with St. Louis on Monday. - The one-way deal will begin next season. Hofer has registered a 2.39 GAA and .922 save percentage through 22 AHL games this season. The 22-year-old has appeared in two career NHL games, yielding six goals on 50 shots. | None |
| Nov. 15, 2021 | Hofer was sent down to AHL Springfield on Monday. - Hofer made a pair of starts with the big club, but his services are no longer needed with regular backup Ville Husso having cleared the league's COVID-19 protocols. The 21-year-old Hofer will use his stint with the Blues as a learning experience as he continues to work on his game in the AHL. | None |
| Nov. 13, 2021 | Hofer will be between the pipes Saturday in Carolina, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports. - The 21-year-old will make his second career start after allowing three goals and earning the win Nov. 4 in San Jose. Hofer will likely vacate the NHL roster once Ville Husso, recently off COVID-19 protocols, is ready to play. | None |
| Nov. 4, 2021 | Hofer will protect the road goal Thursday versus the Sharks. - Hofer will be making his NHL debut Thursday. The 21-year-old was selected by the Blues in the fourth round of the 2018 draft, and Ville Husso's absence while in the COVID-19 protocols allows Hofer to make the start in a second half of a back-to-back. The Sharks are currently battling a significant COVID-19 outbreak as well and will be missing seven lineup regulars. | None |
