Elliott (knee) was moved to injured reserve Wednesday.

Analysis:

With the Blues deeming Elliott week-to-week after he suffered a knee injury in Tuesday's game, the goalie was placed on IR to pave the way for the activation of Jordan Binnington from AHL Chicago. Binnington figures to see scant duty behind Jake Allen, who will now be in line for a full-time role in the wake of Elliott's injury.
