Hofer stopped 29 of 32 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

The Blues started well, but Hofer surrendered a third-period hat trick to Pius Suter. Brayden Schenn salvaged the win for the Blues with the game-winner, giving Hofer his first win since Dec. 27. He's allowed at least three goals in each of his last four outings. The 23-year-old netminder is at 8-8-0 with a 2.88 GAA and a .909 save percentage through 17 appearances this season. Without better performances, Hofer is likely to remain in the backup role behind Jordan Binnington.

Hofer falls to 7-8-0 with a .910 save percentage and 2.88 GAA this season while sharing work with Jordan Binnington.

EDGE Analysis

After holding Florida to just one goal in each of the first two periods, Hofer surrendered a pair of tallies to Matthew Tkachuk in the final frame en route to an eventual 5-1 defeat. The 23-year-old netminder has now dropped back-to-back starts, allowing seven goals on 59 shots in that span.

EDGE Analysis

Hofer was a little shaky in his last start Dec. 30 against the Penguins, surrendering three goals on 29 shots en route to a 4-2 defeat. He'll try to get back in the win column in a rough home matchup with a scorching-hot Florida team that's won seven straight games.

Hofer made 26 saves in a 4-2 loss Saturday to Pittsburgh.

EDGE Analysis

Hofer played a strong game, making several strong saves including breakaway saves on Rielly Smith and Jake Guentzel. But there were also some adventures in netminding - Hofer went out to play the puck early in the third and blew the play, and the puck ended up in the net off his Jeff Carter's stick. The Pens were up 3-1 at that point. Hofer has a bright future, and he'll certainly iron out his gaffes as his ice time increases.

Hofer will defend the road crease in Pittsburgh on Saturday, Lou Korac of The Hockey News reports.

The 23-year-old Hofer has won his last two starts, allowing just two goals on 78 shots in that span. Overall, he's 7-5-0 with a .912 save percentage and 2.73 GAA this season.

EDGE Analysis
