Colorado Avalanche

Blues coach Craig Berube on Sunday said goalie Jordan Binnington will miss the rest of the series against the Avalanche with a lower-body injury — believed ...

He played in five NHL games for the Blues, going 5-0 with a 1.22 GAA and .958 SP. “That D (Rosen) and Naz are both going for a loose puck sitting at the top of the crease, skating in there, downhill, as hard as they can go and both guys go in there. They’re both going after the puck the same way and they collide before they go in.” Binnington was injured 6:45 into the game after Avs center Nazem Kadri and Blues defenseman Calle Rosen collided with him. It’s a loose puck. It’s unfortunate but it is what it is,” Bednar said.

Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington will miss at least the rest of the series against the Avalanche after suffering a knee injury in Game 3.

He paused for a moment and then continued, eventually telling the broadcast that Binnington may have thrown a water bottle at him. The Avalanche hold a 2-1 series lead heading into Game 4 on Monday night in St. Louis. In his postgame news conference, Kadri didn't back off that insinuation. "I just see a loose puck, really. Had that not been the case, I don't think I would have hit him at all," he said. "Look at Kadri's reputation.

Jordan Binnington will miss the rest of the second round series against the Colorado Avalanche due to a lower-body injury.

Things like that happen, we're a good team and we could have done a better job of getting momentum back." Binner is a heart and soul (player), playing unbelievable," Blues captain Ryan O'Reilly said of the play. Jordan Binnington will miss the rest of the Blues' second-round series against the Colorado Avalanche due to a lower-body injury.

Jordan Binnington is out for the remainder of the series with Colorado because of a suspected knee injury.

I'm just going for a loose puck." But, I think the Blues privately know this was not a premeditated act by Kadri. They know. But so was the Kadri/Binnington/Rosen situation. Should the Avs dress Kurtis MacDermid? Jared Bednar did say this morning that MacDermid is a possibility to play Game 4. If so, they can probably kiss goodbye their chances of winning this series, as the Avs will light ’em up on the power play and maybe put their own guys out with suspensions if they do anything horrible. The injury, suspected to be to a knee, was the result of Nazem Kadri and Calle Rosen colliding into him in the first period last night.

Blues head coach Craig Berube talked about Colorado Avalanche center Nazem Kadri's reputation after a collisio early in the first period of Game 3 of the ...

After the game, Blues head coach Craig Berube said Binnington was being evaluated for a lower-body injury. "It's either a legal play or it's not. "But, I mean, not much I can do, man … I'm just going for the loose puck."

Injured Blues goalie Jordan Binnington is out for the rest of the Colorado series, coach Craig Berube said Sunday. “Yeah, it is (a blow),” Berube said.

With the Blues during the regular season, he was even better, with a 5-0-0 record, 1.22 goals-against, and a .958 save percentage. There is no goalie who has played better than Binnington in the series. Berube said Binnington would not need surgery.

Next man up. With the indefinite loss of Samuel Giard following Game 3, the Colorado Avalanche will have to rely on their extensive lineup depth as they ...

But they're not letting themselves get too far ahead and are focused on the task at hand - and expecting a push from the Blues - in a pivotal Game 4. And while this loss comes at the most important time of the year, the team has confidence in their abilities to raise their own levels and that of their extensive depth as they did so in Game 3. They did so playing virtually the entirety of the game with just five defenseman; as Toews logged a whopping 30:56 minutes and Cale Makar skated 28:49 minutes. While Girard's absence is unfortunate, the circumstance of losing a regular is a familiar one for the Avalanche. During the regular season, the team utilized their depth and "next man up" mentality all season long as injuries continuously plagued them. They have to put in the extra work because obviously on a game night everyone else is getting an extra three hours of hard work." The loss of Girard vacates a substantial role on Colorado's blueline where the left shot was consistently paired with Josh Manson, averaged 17:59 minutes in the postseason and anchored one of the Avalanche's power play units.

Sam Girard is out for the rest of the playoffs, so the question is: who should replace him in Colorado Avalanche lineup?

He played 74 games for the Avs in the regular season and he played very well. The Avs, uh, might need some of that element in Game 4, with this entire city up in arms over Jordan Binnington being lost for the series to a knee injury after a collision that involved Public Enemy No. 1 here, Nazem Kadri. ST. LOUIS – I’m already on record saying I believe Jack Johnson should get the job of filling in for the injured Sam Girard, who will be out the rest of the playoffs with a broken sternum.

The Avalanche, who lead the Blues 2-1 in their second-round series, are working with St. Louis law enforcement regarding threats made toward Colorado center ...

Multiple NHL sources told ESPN on Sunday that the league would not fine nor suspend Binnington over the incident. "The guy is on record for calling another player a 'monkey' but he's talking about reputation." The situation with Binnington took an odd turn after the game. Aliu told ESPN that Kadri felt unsafe at the Avalanche's team hotel in St. Louis, partially due to social media threats. Aliu and Kadri are founding members of the Hockey Diversity Alliance, an organization of current and former hockey players of color that is seeking to eradicate racism from the game. The NHL Department of Player Safety determined there was no supplemental discipline necessary for him.

That water bottle tossed toward Colorado Avalanche forward Nazem Kadri hardly came out of nowhere.
