The Blues have acquired Mikhail Abramov, Adam Gaudette, a 2023 1st round pick, a 2024 2nd round pick, and a 2023 3rd round pick from the Maple Leafs in a three-team trade also involving the Wild.

Dylan Holloway has been reassigned to the Bakersfield Condors (AHL).

Holloway had three goals, six assists, 44 SOG, and 27 PIMs across 51 games played with the Oilers but will head to Bakersfield (AHL) for the first time this season. The 2020 1st round pick (14th overall) will hope to be back with Edmonton soon but had to be sent down with Kailer Yamamoto's return to the lineup.

Binnington will start Thursday vs. the Devils.

Binnington stopped 34 of 36 shots (.944 SV%) for his second-straight win as he beat Florida in his previous start.

He will face the New Jersey Devils, who have won four of their last five games and are fourth in the NHL in shots per game (34.1).
