Summary
LOUIS -- The St. Louis Blues appeared to have all the momentum on their side before a sudden turn of events left them without their 'heart and soul' player against the Colorado Avalanche in Game 3 of the Western Conference Second Round at Enterprise Center on Saturday.The shift occurred when Blues goalie Jordan Binnington sustained a lower-body injury at 6:45 of the first period. Binnington was 9-8-1 with a 3.45 GAA and .891 save percentage from Jan. 1 through the end of the season.However, Binnington reclaimed his starting role with a strong performance against the Minnesota Wild in the first round, replacing Husso in Game 4 and winning the next three games to help the Blues eliminate the Wild in six.Prior to his injury, Binnington was 4-1 with a 1.75 GAA and .948 save percentage, which was second to Dallas Stars goalie Jake Oettinger (.954, minimum four games) among goalies this postseason. In Game 2, he made 30 to help the Blues tie the series.Husso appeared to be confused late in the game on Saturday when he was caught between staying in net and skating to the bench for an extra attacker, giving Colorado captain Gabriel Landeskog and easy shot into the open net for a 4-2 lead at 17:52 of the third period."I think anytime a goalie comes in after maybe not playing for a little bit, you just want to get pucks on net, get traffic," O'Connor said.
