Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington received a two-game suspension for roughing and unsportsmanlike conduct from the NHL Department of Player Safety on Thursday afternoon.

Binnington received a match penalty for a scuffle with Minnesota's Ryan Hartman in the second period of Wednesday's game and was also penalized for leaving the crease. Minnesota's Marc-Andre Fleury also received a penalty for leaving the crease.
With Binnington out, the Blues have recalled goaltender Joel Hofer from the AHL's Springfield Thunderbirds under emergency conditions.
In 40 games with Springfield this season, Hofer has posted a record of 22-14-4 with a 2.50 goals-against average, a .920 save-percentage and four shutouts.

Binnington suspended two games for actions vs. Wild
