Hoffman posted an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman had the secondary helper on a Vince Dunn goal in the second period. The Blues were snapping the puck around well on the play, and Hoffman relayed to Robert Thomas, who then set up Dunn. The 31-year-old Hoffman is still finding his way with the Blues -- he has just two points and seven shots through four appearances with his new team.

Hoffman scored a goal on his lone shot in Monday's 5-4 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman was making his St. Louis debut after missing the first two contests due to visa issues. The former Ottawa Senator and Florida Panther deflected a Colton Parayko point shot early in the second period to tie the game at 2-2. Hoffman has scored at least 22 goals in each of the last six seasons and should be a safe bet to approach that range again in 2020-21, even with the shortened schedule.

Hoffman's visa issues have been resolved, so he'll be eligible to play Friday against the Avalanche, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman missed Wednesday's Opening Night matchup with Colorado while sorting out his visa issues, but he should jump right into St. Louis' top six and join one of the team's power-play units for Friday night's contest. The 31-year-old winger racked up 29 goals and 59 points in 69 games with the Panthers last campaign.

Hoffman won't play in Wednesday's game against the Avalanche due to visa issues.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman's debut with the Blues will be put on hold for now. The 31-year-old officially signed with the team Monday, and the Ontario native is apparently still working out immigration issues. Hoffman should be ready for Friday's rematch against the Avalanche, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports. Sammy Blais is expected to bump into the lineup Wednesday, while Oskar Sundqvist will take Hoffman's place on the second line.

Hoffman signed a one-year, $4 million contract with the Blues on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman has been in St. Louis on a PTO during training camp, and he finally made it official with a one-year contract for the 2020-21 season. The 31-year-old winger should handle a major role with the Blues right away, especially with Vladimir Tarasenko (shoulder) out until at least February. With 65 goals over the last two seasons in Florida, Hoffman fills the sniper role well, and he's poised to play on the second line and the top power-play unit to start the season.

Hoffman signed a professional tryout agreement with St. Louis on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman signing a PTO comes as a bit of a surprise as he might have been the best free agent still on the market. The 31-year-old winger has scored at least 22 goals in six consecutive seasons, racking up 169 goals and 353 points during that span. If he sticks around with the Blues after training camp, he'll add a huge boost to their top-nine scoring.

Hoffman may be allowed to test free agency this offseason, per Pierre LeBrun of TSN.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman is coming off his sixth straight 20-goal campaign and could see his next contract exceeded only by that of Taylor Hall. While it sounds like the Panthers are willing to bring the winger back into the fold, new general manager Bill Zito is apparently willing to risk losing Hoffman in order to avoid overpaying for him .

Hoffman scored a power-play goal during Friday's 5-1 loss to the Islanders in Game 4 of their Stanley Cup Qualifier.

EDGE Analysis

The 30-year-old lit the lamp for the third straight game, giving the Panthers a little bit of life late in the first period before the game was out of reach, but it was all the offense the team could muster even in an elimination game. Hoffman racked up three goals and five points in four playoff contests, and after just missing his second straight 30-goal campaign during the abbreviated regular season, he should remain an integral part of the Florida attack next year.

Hoffman scored a goal and assist, both on the power play, during Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Islanders in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Qualifiers.

EDGE Analysis

After helping to set up Erik Haula for the game's opening goal early in the second period, Hoffman wired a one-timer over Semyon Varlamov's glove 41 seconds into the third. The 30-year-old has posted back-to-back two-point performances, but Hoffman may need to stay hot Friday for the Panthers to force a Game 5.

Hoffman scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist during Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Islanders in Game 2 of their Stanley Cup Qualifier.

EDGE Analysis

After being held off the scoresheet in Game 1, Hoffman's early offense staked the Panthers to a 2-1 lead, but it was all Isles for the final 30 minutes. The veteran forward will need turn in another strong effort Wednesday afternoon if Florida is going to avoid being swept.
