The 22-year-old made 28 saves on Sunday to improve to 3-0-0, stoning Alex Burrows on an overtime breakaway and stopping both Vancouver shootout attempts to lead St. Louis over the Canucks 4-3.

PLAYER NEWS

Blues Andy McDonald (STL - Center) News: McDonald plans to retire amid concussion concerns, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. [+] Impact: McDonald, who played six seasons with the Blues, has had five documented concussions during his 12-year NHL career. This season, McDonald played 37 regular season games, contributing seven goals and 21 points. With his St. Louis contract expiring and the team not expected to re-sign him, McDonald now enters retirement with 182 goals and 489 points to his name in 685 games played. (RotoWire - Thu. June 6, 2013) Scott Nichol (STL - Center) News: Nichol announced his retirement Wednesday after 12 seasons in the NHL, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. [+] Impact: The 38-year-old was set to become an unrestricted free agent and coming off a one-point campaign over 30 games, he decided he was better suited for front office work than on-ice duty. A stable locker room presence for 662 NHL games, Nichol will now serve as the director of player development for the Nashville Predators. (RotoWire - Wed. June 5, 2013)

Canucks David Booth (VAN - Left Wing) News: Booth (ankle) was cleared to ditch his walking boot within the past two weeks, the Vancouver Province reports. [+] Impact: The original timetable left the possibility for Booth to return during the playoffs should the Canucks advance far enough, but it doesn't look like he would have been anywhere near ready if Vancouver was still competing. If Booth isn't cleared prior to July 2, he wouldn't be eligible for a buyout this summer, which has been speculated since the offseason began for the Canucks. (RotoWire - Thu. June 6, 2013)
