Jordan Binnington made 28 saves in his 2022 Stanley Cup Playoffs debut, and the St. Louis Blues defeated the Minnesota Wild 5-2 in Game 4 of the Western Conference First Round at Enterprise Center on Sunday.

The series is tied 2-2. Game 5 is in Minnesota on Tuesday.

Binnington entered the game 0-9 with a 4.19 goals-against average and .875 save percentage in the postseason since a 32-save performance in a 4-1 win in Game 7 against the Boston Bruins to win the 2019 Stanley Cup.

"It felt good, I felt prepared," Binnington said. "We had a good start to the game, a really good first period. Definitely a big win, a hard-fought win. We had guys step in the lineup, but I felt pretty good.

"Definitely I had to be patient. Nothing this morning, wait for the game, just hanging out at home and just prepping."
