San Jose at St. Louis

San Jose is hot and smoking offensively, fourth in goals scored, and third on the power play. They've scored 42 goals the last 11 games, part of a 19-7-3 run OVER the total. The Sharks are also 10-1 OVER playing on one day of rest. They head to St. Louis, a club home from a road trip where the offense struggled. However, this offense is terrific at home. St. Louis scored 15 goals on a four-game homestand before their recent trip. St. Louis scored 15 goals on 108 shots for a shooting percentage of 13.89, improving to 16-8-3 at Scottrade Center. The OVER is 7-1 when the Blues return home following a road trip of seven or more days. Top goalie Jake Allen is still on the shelf and they are forced to go with backup Brian Elliott again. There was no shortage of offense for the Blues in the last two meetings in this series as they posted a pair of 7-2 routs of the Sharks, part of a 7-0-1 run OVER the total when they clash. This one finishes OVER.
