Most of his minutes have been in the bottom six, but this player's making an impact anyway.
At the start of the season, the St. Louis Blues had a problem: too many bottom-six forwards, not enough roster spots--and a prospect or two who could push the veterans for ice time. Before the puck dropped in Game One, it seemed that, of all those forwards, Mathieu Joseph was the odd one out. It made sense: he'd had a disappointing 2024-25 season, and hadn't lived up to his contract (which he's now in the final year of).
