Carolina at St. Louis

January 13, 2026
img7:30 PM Eastern

It's the second of a back-to-back road spot for Carolina, after losing 4-3 at Detroit last night in overtime as a -150 favorite. That came one game after a 3-2 win over Seattle as -295 chalk, trailing 2-1 in the third, making this their third game in four nights. Carolina is 6-7 over the last 13 games, losing five times as a favorite and two wins by one goal. Goaltending injuries and inconsistencies remain a concern for the Canes. St. Louis is home, working on two days of rest. The Blues are 5-3 in their last eight home contests, winning three times as an underdog, along with close losses to the Rangers (2-1) and Buffalo (4-2). This is an excellent situational spot for the home team to pull the upset or at least keep it close. Play St. Louis on the puckline. 

1.5 units on St. Louis +1.5 goals -168 (puckline) (risk 1.5 to return 2.39)
