St. Louis will look to make it two in a row after finally ending a five-game slide with a 5-4 victory over Florida on Thursday night. Jimmy Snuggerud scored on a power play with 7.6 seconds left to break a 4-all tie. The Blues have won four straight against the Eastern Conference, and they are out to avenge a 3-2 loss to Columbus in the first meeting this season. The Blue Jackets are playing a back-to-back and the third game in a four-day span. Jet Greaves is likely for Columbus, and he allowed five goals in an 8-5 loss to Tampa Bay last Saturday. Jordan Kyrou and Jake Neighbours both played against the Panthers after being injured in Tuesday's game. Take the Blues on the puckline.
