He has allowed two or fewer goals in six of his last eight games (5-3-0), posting a .927 SV%. The Blues enter Thursday's game as -102 road underdogs against a Utah Mammoth team on a three-game losing streak (0-2-1).

Jiricek has been assigned to Springfield (AHL).
With Tyler Tucker (lower body) and Logan Mailloux (right hand) sidelined to start the season, the Blues expedited their timeline for prospect Adam Jiricek. The 20-year-old Czech defenseman, Jiricek, was drafted 16th overall by the Blues in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft and impressed during his first exposure to the NHL, averaging 15:51 time-on-ice and scoring three points (1G / 2A) in 17 games. That said, with the Blues regulars getting healthier, Jiricek will head back to the AHL.
Lindstein has been reassigned to Springfield (AHL).
