Liut amassed his record over six campaigns and 347 contests with St. Louis, going 151-133 with 52 ties.
Binnington is the fourth active goaltender to lead their respective franchise's all-time wins list. He joins Andrei Vasilevskiy (Tampa Bay), Connor Hellebuyck (Winnipeg), and Philipp Grubauer (Seattle).
