There are a lot of rumors floating around about the future of Jordan Binnington and the St. Louis Blues. Is this the end of the road for the franchise's leading goaltender in so many important stats and figures?
If it is, there is some time now, in the middle of the "Summer" to get back to remembering the good old days. This most recent season was a horrific showing by No. 50, and hopefully, it is going to be the last time anything like this happens.
Let's go back in time and look at some of the best games of Binnington's career.
3. April 7, 2021 against the Vegas Golden Knights
This particular game is special because it is the first time in Binnington's career that he hit the 50-save mark. On April 7, 2021, the Blues defeated the Vegas Golden Knights, 3-1.
Binnington had to stand on his head as the Knights peppered him with 51 shots over the course of 60 minutes, and he had to stop everything and the kitchen sink in this one.
2. November 21, 2019 against the Calgary Flames
Binnington is not the franchise leader in shutouts, as that is one of the last crucial stats that he is not a franchise leader in. But, he did amass a solid 40-save shutout, which is the most saves for a shutout in his career, back in 2019 against the Calgary Flames.
1. June 12, 2019 against the Boston Bruins
But, there is one game that stands above the rest as the greatest in Binnington's storied career with the Blues. That came in the 2018-19 Stanley Cup Final, in Game 7, against the Boston Bruins.
At TD Garden, which is one of the hardest places to play, a rookie goaltender went in there and stopped 32 of 33 shots en route to securing his organization's first Stanley Cup ever. There are no higher stakes and more clutch moments than that.
