Rosen is no stranger to the NHL, with 31 points (11G / 20A) in 93 career games, but has exclusively spent the past two seasons in the AHL. The 32-year-old defenseman has 26 points (7G / 19A) in 47 games this season with the Springfield Thunderbirds (AHL).
Thomas tallied two assists before leaving Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the New York Islanders in the third period due to an upper-body injury, but he should be ready to suit up when St. Louis returns to action on Thursday against the Carolina Hurricanes. The 26-year-old Thomas is producing at an impressive rate after starting the 2025-26 season off slowly, scoring 12 points (5G / 7A) during a seven-game point streak.
Parayko will return to the lineup after missing the last five games due to back spasms. It's his first appearance since he reportedly denied waiving his no movement clause at the trade deadline, blocking a move to Buffalo. The 32-year-old Parayko is averaging 22:24 time-on-ice, recording 13 points (1G / 13A), 67 hits, and 141 blocks in 58 games this season.
Hofer was outstanding in the Blues' previous game, saving all 22 shots he faced for his career-best fifth shutout of the season in a 4-0 win over the Anaheim Ducks, and has been rewarded with another start on Tuesday against the New York Islanders. The 25-year-old Hofer has earned four of six starts since returning from the Olympic break and has been otherworldly in those outings, going 4-0-0 while posting a 1.00 GAA and .962 SV%. The Blues enter Tuesday's contest as slight +105 home underdogs against a New York Islanders team that has scored fewer than two goals in two of their last three games (1-2-0).
Lindstein was a first-round pick of St. Louis in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft. The 21-year-old Swedish defenseman has yet to play an NHL game and is currently playing his first professional season in North America, tallying 14 points (6G / 8A) in 56 games with Springfield (AHL).

Stenberg was effective in his NHL debut with St. Louis earlier this season, tallying eight points (1G / 7A) in 18 games. That said, the 20-year-old Swedish forward has spent most of the 2025-26 campaign in the AHL, where he has 15 points (4G / 11A) in 33 games with Springfield.
Binnington will be looking to collect just his second win of the calendar year when the Blues travel to San Jose on Friday. To be fair, Binnington was unfortunate not to come away with a victory in his last start, when he allowed just two goals on 32 shots in a 3-1 loss to the Devils last Saturday. The 32-year-old netminder owns a disappointing 8-18-6 record and .867 SV% across 33 appearances this season. St. Louis enters action on Friday at +120 on the money line.
Hofer entered the Olympic break on a rough run, posting an ugly 3.98 GAA and .824 SV% in during a four-game stretch (1-2-1). That said, the 25-year-old goalie seems to have returned to the form he was showcasing through much of December and January, saving 45 of 47 combined shots (.957 SV%) in two games (2-0-0) since returning from the league stoppage. The Blues enter Wednesday's contest as +126 road underdogs against a Seattle Kraken team that has scored two or fewer goals in three of four games since returning from the Olympic break (2-2-0).
Parayko has missed the last two games and will miss at least one more due to back spasms. The 32-year-old Parayko is averaging 22:24 time-on-ice, recording 13 points (1G / 13A), 67 hits, and 141 blocks in 58 games this season.
Thomas did not play on Thursday against the Seattle Kraken due to a personal matter, but could suit up on Saturday against the New Jersey Devils. The 26-year-old Thomas has been a point-per-game player over the past four seasons, but has not been able to maintain that pace in 2025-26, with only 33 points (11G / 22A) through 42 games for a struggling Blues team. That said, he had nine points (4G / 5A) in 10 games leading into the Olympic break.
